With MU-MIMO, small businesses can relieve congestion today while future-proofing their networks for tomorrow.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2cs6eFy\">For more information, click here.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Features:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li><b>Next Generation AC Wi-Fi Connectivity<\/b> \u2013 Allows multiple clients to transmit data simultaneously, improving performance and productivity in high-density wireless environments.<\/li>\n<li><b>Clustering (single point control) <\/b>\u2013 Enables small businesses and IT Administrators to manage up to 16 APs through a single interface without a WLAN controller.<\/li>\n<li><b>Captive Portal <\/b>(<b>Secure and customized guest Wi-Fi access<\/b>) \u2013 A fully customizable landing page for businesses to welcome visitors and provide wireless access in a branded environment that is separated from the core business network.<\/li>\n<li><b>Flexible Deployment <\/b>\u2013 Can be deployed as a typical access point, as a wireless distribution system (WDS), or as a workgroup bridge to extend your wireless range coverage.<\/li>\n<li><b>Easy to Use with PoE+<\/b> \u2013 Integrated with 802.3at PoE+ capability to eliminate extra power adapters and offer optimal placement.
