Frequently Asked Questions

help you choose the right solution for your network

What kind of environments is the ion4i Access Point best suited for?

This Wi-Fi 5 Access Point is designed for a variety of indoor environments that require high-performance, cost-effective Wi-Fi. It is ideal for medium-density locations such as small to medium enterprises, schools, retail stores, cafes, and restaurants.

What is the speed limit of Wi-Fi 5?

While the theoretical maximum speed of Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) is 6.9 Gbps, you should expect much lower speeds in real-world scenarios. Typical speeds for most users are around 200-300 Mbps.

Several factors affect your actual speed, including:

  • Number of Antennas: The hardware of your router and devices determines the maximum speed you can achieve.
  • ISP Bandwidth: Your Wi-Fi speed is limited by the maximum speed of your internet service plan.
  • Obstacles: Wi-Fi 5 operates on the 5 GHz band, which is faster but has a shorter range and is more easily blocked by walls and other physical obstructions.

What kind of mounting options are available for Access Points?

Access Points can be mounted on walls, ceilings, or poles (for outdoor APs). Some models support desktop placement, while enterprise Access Points are designed for discreet ceiling installations.

Where is the best place to install an Access Point?

Install Access Points in central, elevated locations free of obstructions. For large areas, place multiple wireless Access Points evenly to ensure seamless coverage.

What is the difference between the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands?

Wi-Fi 5 Access Points primarily operate on the 5 GHz band, which offers faster speeds and more available channels, but has a shorter range and is more easily blocked by physical obstacles like walls. The older 2.4 GHz band has a longer range and better wall penetration, but is generally slower and more prone to interference from other household devices like microwaves and Bluetooth.
