EnGenius Technologies Inc. has this month launched its ENH500-AX, a Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) 5GHz 2x2 outdoor wireless point to point client bridge whose Gigabit Ethernet PoE port supports flexible power options.
Leveraging Wi-Fi technology to deliver high-density transmissions between buildings and large outdoor properties without the complexity or cost of installing fiber cables, the company says the unit's Wi-Fi 6 capabilities significantly improve throughput and efficiency, accommodating 8K ultra-HD video and heavy multi-application traffic with extended bandwidth over greater distances.
As noted by EnGenius, the ENH500-AX "invisible wire" bridge integrates the Qualcomm Quad-Core ARM Cortex A53s @ 2.0GHz CPU and is a positioned for businesses looking to connect multiple buildings or extend networks to outdoor spaces.
Designed for peak performance in harsh climates, these outdoor access points feature IP55-rated waterproof and dustproof enclosures, ensuring they can withstand harsh outdoor environments.
The ENH500-AX bridge offers high 26 dBm output power and utilizes beamforming technology to optimize client antenna signal, reception, and reliability. the platform can achieve longer ranges when paired with another Wi-Fi 6 bridge in a point-point/multi-point deployment.
The unit comes equipped with high-gain 16 dBi directional antennas that emit a narrow signal beam to limit interference and ensure stable connectivity, high bandwidth, and speeds of up to 1200Mbps for up to 5 miles.
The unit's beamforming capability optimizes antenna signal, reception, and reliability for clients. 2x2 directional antennas to support up to 1,200 Mbps in the 5 GHz spectrum; the integrated directional antennas extend wireless networks up to 5 miles point-to-point.
The EnWiFi app's simple, intuitive interface enables local AP configuring and monitoring. Devices can be remotely and centrally managed via the EnGenius Private Cloud software.
Eddie Lee, product line manager at EnGenius Technologies, commented, "We are excited to introduce this cutting-edge Wi-Fi 6 technology to the market and offer our customers a reliable and cost-effective solution for easily expanding their wireless networks."
The ENH500-AX is now shipping and available to order.
