NWA5123-ACHD Wave 2 Standalone or Controller AP, Dual Radio 802.11ac 3x3 (1.6Gbps) MU-MIMO Business Wireless Access Point, 16x SSID, 2x GbE LAN ports, PoE The Zyxel NWA5123-AC HD is a Wave 2 dual-radio 3x3 MU-MIMO Unified Access Point with a combined data rate of up to 1.6Gbps. Thanks to its superior hardware design with next generation beamforming technology and advanced noise suppression, the NWA5123-AC HD delivers increased coverage and improved connection speeds for every client. The high-performance NWA5123-AC HD is future-proof for the ever-growing mobility demands in high-density environments such as campuses and hotels. MU-MIMO, New Definition of Wi-Fi Stepping up from 802.11ac, the second generation Wave 2 technology introduces Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO). This is an important WiFi development that enables an AP to communicate with multiple clients at a time offering 300% performance for a 3x3 AP. Next Generation Transmit Beamforming benefits overall networking Transmit Beamforming (TxBF) technology is another key to implement reliable high-density Wi-Fi connection. It increases overall network transmission data rates, which benefits not only MU-MIMO clients but also all existing clients. Built for Superior performance The NWA5123-AC HD is built with a high-efficiency antenna module, premium power amplifiers and low-noise elements delivering superior wireless performance over other Wave 2 access points on the market. Optimized wireless experience with advanced features To provide outstanding performance in crowded environment, NWA5123-AC HD features 3G/4G interference immunity, excellent receive sensitivity and DCS, which enlarge its service coverage for more clients and better quality of connection. Unified access point- Fits all businesses Stay standalone mode if you’re a start-up, needing just few APs; convert to controller-managed mode when business grows up, requiring hundreds of APs. 802.11n/ac premium features 802.11n: 2x2 MIMO with two spatial stream (SU-MIMO) 802.11ac: 3x3 MIMO with three spatial stream (SU-, or MU-MIMO) 802.11ac beamforming (transmit beamforming) Maximal ratio combining (MRC) Low End Sensitivity Improvements (LESI) Time Domain Channel Smoothing 20-, 40- and 80-MHz channels PHY data rates total up to 300 Mbps (11n) + 1300 Mbps (11ac) Packet aggregation: A-MPDU (Tx/Rx), A-MSDU (Tx/Rx) Cyclic Delay diversity (CSD) support Maximum Likelihood Demodulation (MLD) support Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) support Typical transmit output power (dBm) *1 US (FCC) 2.4 GHz: 25 dBm US (FCC) 5 G GHz: 28 dBm EU (ETSI) 2.4 GHz: 20 dBm EU (ETSI) 5 G GHz: 26 dBm Antenna gain 2.4 GHz: 3 dBi; 2x2 MIMO 5 GHz: 3 dBi 3x3 MIMO Support data rate 802.11a/g: 1, 2, 5.5, 6, 9, 11, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, and 54 Mbps 802.11n: up to 300 Mbps in MCS15 (40MHz; 2 Spatial Streams; GI=400ns) 802.11ac:up to 1300 Mbps in MCS9 (80MHz; 3 Spatial Streams; GI=400ns) Receive sensitivity Min.
