1. Product Description

This document describes LITE-ON generic product requirement of 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac dual

band (2.4GHz and 5GHz) concurrent dual radios 3×3:3 indoor AP, which Lite-On product

model is WP838E.

The WP838E structure as SOC QCA9550+1×miniPCIe radio card (Lite-On WM863). One

radio offers 802.11n 450Mbps and another radio offers 802.11ac 1.3Gbps. See Figure-01

In mounting scenario, the WP838E can be deployed as wall mount and ceiling mount.

Via one Giga-bit Ethernet port, the WP838E can connect to the backbone network through

Giga-bit Ethernet interface. Besides, the WP838E also provides 802.3af/at PoE PD which is

able to be powered by PoE switch remotely. The WP838E also supports DC12V power source

option for the environment where PoE is not available.

The WP838E equips six RSMA connectors. (External antenna)
