Huawei eKitEngine AP761 Access Point

Huawei eKitEngine Access Point

Huawei eKitEngine AP761 is an outdoor AP in compliance with the Wi-Fi 6 standard (802.11ax). It stands out with excellent outdoor coverage performance, IP68 waterproof and dustproof design, and strong surge protection capability. The AP provides uplink optical and electrical ports, allowing customers to select different deployment modes and saving customers’ investment. These strengths make the AP ideal for high-density scenarios such as stadiums, squares, pedestrian streets, and amusement parks.

• Built-in directional antennas, enabling the AP to work simultaneously on the 2.4 GHz (2×2) and 5 GHz (2×2) frequency bands, achieving a device rate of up to 1.775 Gbps (0.575 Gbps at 2.4 GHz and 1.2 Gbps at 5 GHz).
• 1 x GE electrical port + 1 x GE optical port.
• 6 kA surge protection for Ethernet ports, IP68 waterproof and dustproof level, and extended operating temperature range from –40°C to +65°C, meeting industrial-grade requirements.
• Working modes: Fit, Fat, and cloud management.

Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) standard

• As the latest Wi-Fi standard defined in IEEE 802.11, 802.11ax improves the user access capacity and bandwidth in high-density access scenarios, reduces service latency, and enhances user experience.
• Multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) on both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands, allowing an AP to transmit data to and receive data from multiple STAs simultaneously and multiplying the utilization of radio spectrum resources.
• 802.11ax supports 1024-QAM, delivering 25% higher data transmission efficiency than 802.11ac (supporting 256-QAM).
• Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) technology enables the AP to transmit data to multiple STAs at the same time using different subcarriers, reducing latency and improving network efficiency.
• Spatial multiplexing technology uses basic service set (BSS) coloring mechanism to enable the AP and STAs to distinguish overlapping BSSs, minimizing co-channel interference.
• Target Wake Time (TWT) technology allows the AP and STAs to negotiate the sleep and wake time with each other, thereby improving the battery life of the STAs.

MU-MIMO

• The AP supports MU-MIMO and supports a maximum of four spatial streams (two on the 2.4 GHz frequency band and two on the 5 GHz frequency band). The MU-MIMO technology enables an AP to send data to multiple STAs simultaneously, which doubles the radio spectrum resource usage, increases the number of access users and bandwidth, and improves user experience in high-density access scenarios.

High-speed access

• The AP supports 80 MHz frequency bandwidth, which increases the number of available data subcarriers and expands transmission channels. In addition, the AP adopts 1024-QAM and MU-MIMO to achieve a rate of up to 0.575 Gbps on the 2.4 GHz band and 1.2 Gbps on the 5 GHz band, meaning up to 1.775 Gbps for the device.

High-specification protection

• Extended temperature range of –40°C to +65°C with a metal shell and an overall heat dissipation design, IP68 waterproof and dustproof design, and 6 kA surge protection for Ethernet ports, meeting industrial-grade requirements.
• Cable connectors are secured using metal fasteners to ensure secure connections and stable device operations.
