Wi-Fi antenna: Integrated downtilt omni-directional antennas for 4x4 MIMO in 2.4 GHz with peak antenna gain of 4.3 dBi, and 8x8 MIMO in 5 GHz with peak antenna gain of 5.8 dBi in 5 GHz.
In tri-radio mode, the peak gain of the antennas for each of the 4x4 5 GHz radios is 5.5 dBi (radio 0L, lower half of 5GHz) and 5.6 dBi (radio 0U, upper half of 5 GHz).
Built-in antennas are optimized for horizontal ceiling mounted orientation of the AP. The downtilt angle for maximum gain is roughly 30 degrees.
Connectivity, standard: Wi-Fi 6 (IEEE 802.11ax)
Ports: E0, E1: HPE Smart Rate port (RJ-45, maximum negotiated speed 5 Gbps)
Serial console interface (proprietary, micro-B USB physical jack)
USB 2.0 host interface (Type A connector)
Mounting: Pre-installed mounting bracket, for use with optional mounting kit, see the ordering guide.
Power consumption: Maximum (worst-case) power consumption (dual-radio operation):
DC powered: 32.6W
PoE powered (802.3bt or dual 802.3at): 38.2W
PoE powered (802.3at, IPM disabled): 25.1W
All numbers above are without an external USB device connected. When sourcing the full 5W power budget to such a device, the incremental (worst-case) power consumption for the AP is up to 6.0W (PoE powered) or 5.4W (DC powered).
Maximum (worst-case) power consumption in idle mode (dual-radio operation): 15.0W (PoE) or 15.1W (DC)
Maximum (worst-case) power consumption in deep-sleep mode: 3.8W(PoE) or 3.6W (DC)
Radio coverage: AP type: Indoor, dual/tri-radio, 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz 802.11ax 4x4 MIMO
5 GHz radio (dual-radio operation): Eight spatial stream HE80 (or 4SS HE160) MIMO for up to 4.8 Gbps wireless data rate
5 GHz radio (tri-radio operation): Four spatial stream HE80 (or 2SS HE160) MIMO for up to 2.4 Gbps wireless data rate
2.4 GHz radio: Four spatial stream HE40 (HE20) MIMO for up to 1,147 Mbps (574Mbps)
