Key selling points

Wired and wireless integration, saving money and space: Integrates 10 GE ports, allowing direct connection to APs, IPCs, and PCs without the need for additional switches; its half-width 1U form factor is suitable for small server rooms with limited rack space.

Zero-configuration, rapid deployment: APs automatically discover the AC, register, and distribute configuration and version information upon power-up, completing single-site deployment within 10 minutes; supports side-mounted/direct-connect networking, adapting to unified management from headquarters to branches.

SmartRadio intelligent radio frequency: Dynamic channel allocation (DFA), intelligent roaming, load balancing, and Airtime fair scheduling suppress low-speed terminals from dragging down the entire network, improving the experience in high-density scenarios.

Multi-dimensional security and uninterrupted service: Supports WPA3, 802.1X, MAC/Portal authentication, and ACL; APs automatically switch to local forwarding in case of AC failure, ensuring user online access; supports AP radio frequency and link-level redundancy.
