WAX510D

802.11ax (WiFi 6) Dual-Radio Unified Pro Access Point

The WAX510D is truly the next generation of wireless (WiFi 6) AP, especially
for businesses looking to strike the right balance between performance
and budget. Its built-in 2nd Generation WiFi 6 (Qualcomm 802.11ax 2.0)
chipset allows the access point to take advantage of the full range of WiFi 6
technologies including uplink OFDMA and MU-MIMO, which can’t be found
in the earlier releases of 802.11ax. The WAX510D boasts an impressive Quad­Core processor with 2 network accumulators to guarantee that a smooth and
consistently fast service is provided to each client at all times.

The WAX510D is not only efficient at delivering impressive high speeds with
smooth and consistent delivery to wireless clients, but also it’s efficient on
power. The WAX510D can deliver its impressive performance while keeping
the consumption of PoE within the PoE+ standard, so that you can enjoy the
latest WiFi 6 technology offering without the need to invest in upgrading your
traditional switching architecture.

The WAX510D with NebulaFlex Pro offers the full flexibility for users to switch
among standalone, controller-managed and cloud-managed modes. In
addition, it comes with a 1-year bundled Nebula Professional Pack license*1
that eliminates immediate licensing cost when migrating to full-featured
cloud management.

Benefits

Bringing next generation WiFi within reach

Zyxel’s new WAX510D is a true WiFi 6 access point that
delivers faster performance and massive increased­capacity, which along with unique Zyxel dual optimized
antenna technology, make the user experience even better.
Apart from running at 25% faster speed, the WAX510D can
also accommodate more client devices without any fall-off
in speed, allowing an easy scale-up capacity to support
hundreds of connections without increased latency.

NebulaFlex Pro – simply manage it your way!

The NebulaFlex Pro provides extended flexibility, allowing
users to easily switch among standalone, on-promises
controller or our intuitive NCC (Nebula Control Center)
modes any time according to your needs without additional
cost while protecting wireless technology investments.
The privilege of one-year professional pack you can get
once upon registration on Nebula includes wireless health,
site-wide topology, 365-day statistics on the devices and
clients monitoring along with more upcoming advanced
features on NCC and its App.

Unparalleled high-density performance

Essentially, there are two technologies that make a real
difference in WiFi 6 – orthogonal frequency-division
multiple access (ODFMA), and spatial re-use, which is also
referred to as Basic Service Set (BSS) coloring. These make
WiFi 6 a much more efficient technology than 802.11ac. The
BSS coloring allows multiple access points to be used in the
same vicinity without fear of co-channel interference.

Superior performance with innovative “Dual­optimized” antenna

People without RF expertise may not realize that installing
an AP optimized for ceiling-mount as wall-mount may
cause the ceiling-mount radiation pattern to interfere with
other devices up- or downstairs as well as to deliver signals
with shorter-than-expected range for its clients. Designed
with the innovative “Dual-optimized” antenna, the WAX510D
adapts to both wall- and ceiling-mount installations. Thus,
users can switch between the two optimized antenna
modes easily to fit either situation. To boost WiFi speeds for
your network, the WAX510D is definitely an excellent choice.

4G/5G cellular network coexistence

With the growing pervasiveness of mobile devices in the
wireless network, users start to experience degraded
performance, such as ping drops and high latency, however
whenever user shutdown the mobile equipment, wireless
service resumes working smooth. Thus, to enable 4G/5G
cellular network coexistence and minimize interference
from 4G/5G antennas or signal boosters, the WAX510D has
built-in 4G/5G interference filters. As a result, the visible or
invisible 4G/5G indoor antennas in the environment is no
longer an issue when installing APs.
