Data Sheet
ExtremeWireless™ AP305C/CX
Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) Indoor Access Point with integrated or
external antenna options
The AP305C/CX are indoor enterprise APs based on a new system-ona-chip (SoC) with two built-in dual-band radios providing the best value
with Wi-Fi 6 high eciency. You have your choice of models with either
integrated or external antennas. Advanced radio technology delivers
802.11ax 2x2:2 data rates up to 2.4 Gbps concurrently on both the 2.4
GHz and 5 GHz radios. These 2x2:2 APs continue the Extreme tradition of
software-selectable radios (SSRs) capable of dual 5 GHz connectivity for
indoor and industrial environments.
Cellular Coexistence Filter (CCF)
• Minimizes the impact of interference
from cellular networks
Smart Management
• ExtremeCloud™ IQ delivers powerful,
simple, and secure public or private
cloud management capabilities
ExtremeWireless™ AP305C/CX

Priced for the mass-market, this enterprise-grade access point is ideal for
budget-conscious enterprises who do not want to sacrifice performance.
The AP305C/CX comes in an aesthetic design and can fit in the palm of
your hand. Both models are eco-friendly APs partially made from recycled
materials. Also included is an integrated light sensor and integrated power
meter to help conserve power consumption*. The easy install ceiling mount
for quick installation and unique way to hide the Ethernet cables for an
aesthetically pleasing installation.
Despite the exponential growth of users, BYOD devices, IoT, highbandwidth applications and security threats straining the infrastructure,
the AP305C/CX combines performance, security services and insightful
ML/AI management capabilities to deliver an enterprise class solution at
a value price.

Security
Management Analytics
The AP305C/CX delivers the highest level of security
services, beginning with support for the latest Wi-Fi
Alliance WPA3 security certifications. Additionally,
the AP305C/CX supports a stateful L2-L7 DPI firewall
for context-based access security, Private Pre-Shared
Key (PPSK) and much more.
Wi-Fi 6 Technology
Prior generations of 802.11n, 802.11ac wave 1 and 2,
can be considered generational improvements with
an emphasis on faster speed. 802.11ax technology
instead enhances Wi-Fi eciency as well as speed,
taking Wi-Fi networks to an entirely new level. To
learn more about 802.11ax, go to: https://www.
extremenetworks.com/are-you-ready-for-802-11ax
In conjunction with Extreme Management system,
cloud or on-premises, the AP305C/CX provides a very
rich set of data displayed via context driven widgets,
representing historical data or a combination of
historical and current data. This provides contextspecific granularity with perspective views for
locations, network, APs, individual client devices, as
well as policy roles. In each context, administrators
can adjust dashboards make a widget library.
RF Monitoring
Network managers will appreciate a powerful
choice of RF management for their Wi-Fi networks,
with Adaptive RF management with AI/ML-like
functionality. Adaptive RF algorithms provide
intelligent selection of the best channels and transmit
power for unimpaired dual 5 GHz operation. Load
balancing, band steering and many other attributes of
the RF can all be automated.
Programmable Radios
Extreme launched the industry's first software defined
802.11ax access point supporting not only a dual
5GHz capability but also two software programmable
modes to optimally manage radios to provide the
highest level of client performance. The AP305C/CX
intelligent monitoring of the software- configurable
radios enables network managers to configure
network RF technology based on user environment
and configure the access points in dierent modes as
required.

Integrated BLE and Zigbee
To support both IoT and Guest Engagement services
the AP305C/CX integrates Bluetooth to connect with
IoT devices with Thread wireless to engage loyalty
customers with Apple iBeacon. Enterprises can use
API driven applications to send advertisements
directly to shoppers, guests, and conference
attendees. This makes it ideal for businesses to
advertise their app download pages, captive portals,
or site-specific information.
