MikroTik hAP ac

Explore comprehensive and affordable home and office wireless networking with the MikroTik hAP ac. The hAP ac's dual concurrent triple-chain feature ensures simultaneous data transmission and reception on both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, significantly enhancing its potential data transfer rate. Operating as a 2.4/5GHz Access Point, it dynamically adapts to the optimal frequency, providing flexibility and superior performance in various network conditions. Leveraging 802.11ac technology, the hAP ac operates on the 5GHz band, delivering faster data rates compared to its predecessors, particularly the 802.11n standard.

At its core, the hAP ac is driven by the QCA9558 chipset. This purpose-built core processing unit, designed by Qualcomm Atheros, is optimized for executing networking functions. Featuring 1 core and a clock speed of 720 MHz, the QCA9558 chipset ensures efficient data processing, forming the backbone of the hAP ac's advanced networking capabilities.

The inclusion of Gigabit Ethernet ports amplifies the hAP ac's connectivity capabilities. These ports, supporting data transfer rates up to 1 gigabit per second, guarantee high-speed wired connections. In the realm of networking, Gigabit Ethernet proves indispensable, providing low-latency and high-throughput communication for demanding applications. With passive PoE output on port 5, the device can power other RouterBOARD devices without the need for an extra power adapter.

The hAP ac also features an SFP cage, accommodating Small Form-factor Pluggable modules. This feature allows for flexible connectivity options, including integrating fiber optic transceivers. The SFP modules enable the device to establish long-distance connections over optical fibers, expanding the networking possibilities. Additionally, the hAP ac incorporates a USB-A 2.0 port tailored for 3G/4G support. This port facilitates seamless connectivity with external devices, particularly designed to support 3G or 4G modems. This thoughtful addition empowers the device to establish a mobile broadband connection, catering to diverse networking scenarios.
