⇒Technical Datasheet

PERFORMANCE

The e700 AP supports dual-band 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz operation, providing maximum data rates of 400 Mbps and 1733 Mb, respectively. The 4×4 antenna array with beamforming enhances signal quality and range, improving capacity and coverage, especially in high-interference scenarios. Its dual gigabit Ethernet ports support link aggregation to meet higher throughput requirements and provide an auxiliary PoE output to power Cambium subscriber modules or other Ethernet/PoE devices.

COVERAGE

This AP is designed for extensive outdoor coverage. The e700’s integrated 8 dBi omni antennas deliver reliable connectivity over wide areas such as campuses and large outdoor venues with operating distances reaching up to approximately 700 feet. The IP67 housing, combined with UV protection, also guarantees sustained operation in harsh environmental conditions ranging from -40 °C to 65 °C.

POWER CONSUMPTION

The e700 AP is powered by a 60W Gigabit passive PoE injector or PoE+ switch, consuming a typical power of 18W and a maximum of 24.6W. Its power-out feature on the auxiliary gigabit Ethernet port simplifies installation by enabling connected devices like wireless backhauls or IP cameras to be powered via the same AP.
