Netgear WAX608Y Dual Band Wi-Fi 6 IEEE 802.11ax 1.80 Gbit/s Wireless Access Point - Outdoor

WiFi 6 Access Points for Commercial and Residential Integrators

The WAX608Y is a fast, weather-resistant WiFi 6 access point, ideal for residential or commercial integration projects with outdoor WiFi coverage needs. The dualband access point delivers up to 1.8Gbps total WiFi throughput and is supported by a 2.5Gbps Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) port. The WAX608Y comes with (4) four years of Insight Pro remote management and (4) four years of ProSupport included.

WAX608Y is designed to withstand harsh environment conditions including prolonged exposure to sunlight, cold, frost, snow, rainfall, hail, and humidity. It is rated IP55 and supports temperatures from -20C to 60C.

The WAX608Y supports WiFi 6 smart phones, IoT devices, and notebook computers, delivering up to 40% more throughput to each individual device in the 5GHz band and 70% more throughput in the 2.4GHz band, compared to the previous generation equivalent model. It also provides 4x the client device connection, allowing businesses to serve more customers with better speed and less congestion.

The WAX608Y is ideal in large residential estates or high density client device environments such as schools, hotels, restaurants and conference centers, and provides enterprise grade WiFi network security. With Insight management, WAX608Y works seamlessly with your current NETGEAR Insight managed switches, WiFi access points and network storage, and is compatible with previous generation WiFi devices (WiFi 5 802.11ac for example) and WiFi Access Points.

In the past several years, the WiFi industry has made progress in increasing speeds by leaps and bounds. However, capacity continues to be a challenge, namely, supporting a large number of concurrent users. This access point provides network connectivity to a large number of client devices, with good throughput, stable connection, and robust responses to environmental changes that is most important.

With the updated WiFi 6 (802.11ax) technology such as OFDMA, upstream and downstream MU-MIMO, and increased speeds, coverage, and capacity, you can feel confident that you're getting the highest performance WiFi that's set for years to come! Plus the assurance that you can now add more connected devices on your WiFi network without any slowdowns or blind spots.

The WAX608Y WiFi 6 access point, combined with Insight, helps integrators with a way to remotely manage their client's network, providing seamless WiFi connection and satisfied client experiences. NETGEAR empowers integrators with an all new WiFi 6 access point for high performance and high coverage for the years to come.
