Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to key questions about our Wi-Fi Access Points to
help you choose the right solution for your network

How does Wi-Fi 6 improve network efficiency for a high number of users?

Wi-Fi 6 is designed to handle a large number of connected devices more efficiently. With features like MU-MIMO and OFDMA, it allows the Access Point to communicate with multiple devices at once, rather than one at a time. This is particularly beneficial in high-density areas, as it reduces network congestion and improves per-user throughput.

How do I choose the right Access Point for a high-density environment like a stadium or a large auditorium?

For environments with a high density of users and devices, you need an Access Point with a high-capacity and advanced features to handle the traffic. The ion12xi_h2 is designed for this with its 8x8 MU-MIMO, high data rate, and support for up to 1024 concurrent clients. Its Wi-Fi 6 certification also ensures it is optimized for high-performance applications.

What is the benefit of having a centrally managed Access Point?

A centrally managed Access Point, like the ion12xi_h2, can be configured and managed remotely via a cloud or on-premise controller. This simplifies network management, especially for large-scale deployments, by allowing administrators to easily monitor, configure, and troubleshoot the network from a single location.

What are the benefits of using an Access Point?

Using an Access Point (AP) is an effective way to improve your Wi-Fi network. The key benefits are:

  • Extended Coverage: APs eliminate Wi-Fi dead zones, providing a strong, reliable signal throughout your entire home or office.
  • Improved Performance: By distributing the network load, APs reduce congestion, leading to faster speeds and more reliable connections for all your devices.
  • Scalability: You can easily add more APs as your network needs grow, making it simple to expand coverage and capacity.
  • Seamless Roaming: When configured in a mesh network, APs allow your devices to automatically switch to the strongest signal as you move around, providing an uninterrupted connection.

What does Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) mean, and is it a necessary feature?

Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) is the newest Wi-Fi standard. It's designed to make your network more efficient and handle a large number of connected devices at the same time. Yes, for most modern homes and all businesses, Wi-Fi 6 is an essential feature. While older Wi-Fi standards may be sufficient for a single device, they can struggle when multiple people are streaming video, gaming, or using multiple smart home devices at the same time. Wi-Fi 6 significantly improves performance in these high-density scenarios by providing a faster, more stable, and more reliable connection for every device on the network.
