Araknis Networks AN-820-AP-I AX3600 Wi-Fi 6 Indoor Wireless Access Point

Araknis Networks AN-820-AP-I AX3600 Wi-Fi 6 Indoor Wireless Access Point

The Araknis Networks AN-820-AP-I Wi-Fi 6 Indoor Wireless Access Point provides high-capacity dual-band wireless networking for residential and commercial installations. Featuring 4x4 MU-MIMO technology, AX3600-class wireless performance, and a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet uplink, this 820 Series access point supports demanding environments with multiple connected devices. Integrated OvrC management enables remote network configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting.

Designed for professional network installers, AV integrators, smart homes, and commercial facilities, the Araknis AN-820-AP-I combines Wi-Fi 6 technology with advanced wireless traffic management. Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) enables efficient communication with multiple clients, while 4x4 multi-user MIMO supports simultaneous data transmission. The access point provides theoretical wireless link speeds up to 1148 Mbps on 2.4 GHz and 2400 Mbps on 5 GHz. Its 2.5GbE network connection supports multi-gigabit wired backhaul, helping accommodate high-bandwidth applications such as streaming, conferencing, and connected home automation. Installers can configure multiple service set identifiers (SSIDs), manage network traffic, and implement wireless security policies for different users and devices.

The 820 Series features OvrC cloud-based management for remote setup, diagnostics, and network optimization. Advanced capabilities include automated channel tuning, wireless bridge functionality, Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS), band steering, and IEEE 802.11r/k/v fast roaming. WPA3 security and VLAN support provide additional flexibility for managed installations. The circular enclosure supports ceiling or wall mounting, with compatibility for optional Araknis in-ceiling mounting brackets. Power over Ethernet simplifies installation by delivering power through the network connection, while a separate 12V DC input offers an alternative power option.
