Негизги өзгөчөлүктөрү
- WiFi 7 Performance: Qualcomm quad-core CPU powers BE6500 dual-radio speeds up to 6.5Gbps across 2.4GHz (688 Mbps), 5GHz (4324 Mbps), and 6GHz (5764 Mbps), with MU-MIMO and MLO for lower latency and higher throughput.
- BandFlex Technology: Configure your radio for either 5GHz or 6GHz to fit seamlessly into existing networks today while staying ready for full 6GHz deployment when your devices support it.
- Smart Mesh MLO: Dual-radio Smart Mesh MLO eliminates cable runs and complex backhaul setups, delivering higher bandwidth and stronger interference resistance than single-radio mesh systems.
- Ийкемдүү башкаруу: NebulaFlex allows you to run fully standalone via local GUI with no cloud account required, or switch to Nebula Cloud management anytime without additional cost or reconfiguration.
- Enterprise Security: Captive portal, IEEE 802.1X/RADIUS authentication, WPA3 encryption, rogue AP detection, and L2 isolation deliver small-business-grade network protection.
2. Орнотуу
Физикалык орнотуу
The NWA90BE PRO can be mounted on a wall or ceiling using the included mount plate and screws. Ensure the mounting location provides optimal signal coverage and is near a power source or a Power over Ethernet (PoE+) enabled switch.
Аппаратты туташтыруу
- Кубат туташуу: The NWA90BE PRO can be powered in two ways:
- Кубат адаптерин колдонуу: Connect the included power adapter to the DC Jack on the access point and plug it into a power outlet.
- PoE+ колдонуу: Connect an Ethernet cable from a PoE+ enabled switch or injector to the 2.5GbE uplink port on the access point. This provides both power and data connectivity.
- Тармак туташуусу: Connect an Ethernet cable from your network router or switch to the 2.5GbE uplink port on the access point.
