The model range of Zyxel Wi-Fi 7 access points

The right access point today is chosen not by the maximum "speed on the box", but by a set of quite mundane parameters: how many bands are actually used, is there 6GHz, how many spatial streams does the radio frequency give, which uplink is on the wired side, is PoE supported, is there a second Ethernet port, can the device works as a bridge, whether it supports mesh, how exactly it can be controlled and in which case it is made. This is especially important for Zyxel, because the Wi‑ ...

Zyxel NWA50BE Review - Inexpensive 2.5G PoE model for Wi-Fi 7

This is a Wi-Fi 7 model with a simplified radio part with a 2x2:2 antenna formula and a channel width of up to 240 MHz, which gives an overall air speed of up to 5.1 Gbit/s. With a 2.5-gigabit network port, the access point can easily handle such complex tasks as backup of client laptops, synchronization of media archives, streaming video in any resolution, and in general, everything that requires the transmission of large amounts of data "over the air" is not very demanding of delays ...

How to set up seamless roaming on Zyxel access points via Nebula Control Center

In modern wireless networks, access points interact with each other by exchanging clients to balance the load and switch the mobile subscriber to a station with a higher signal strength. To ensure that the process of switching between access points remains unnoticeable for the client and does not lead to a pause or interruption of the call through the messenger, the 802.11k and 802.11r protocols are used, which are responsible for switching between wireless stations and maintaining ...

Zyxel WBE530 review: access point with 3 radio modules

The total bandwidth of the ZyXEL WBE530 is 10.8 GBps, but it is clear that it is achieved in ideal conditions when some customers "do not enter the wire", but exchange traffic via Wi-Fi. The access point has two 2.5 Gbit/s network interfaces, PoE power supply with up to 21 watts and 3 radio modules with 6 streams (2x2 for 2.4 GHz, 2x2 for 5 GHz and 2x2 for 6 GHz bands), channel widths of 160 and 320 MHz for 5 and 6 GHz bands are supported.> We continue to get acquainted with the ...

Review of the Zyxel NWA210BE Access Point: Wi-Fi 7 model for high density spaces

The NWA210BE model is a model of the Wi-Fi 7 standard in the medium price range, it has 2 radio modules with formulas 2x2:2 for 2.4GHz and 4x4:4 for 5 and 6 GHz. The 5 and 6 Hz ranges are controlled by a single BandFlex radio module, so only one of them can operate at a time. The NWA210BE supports a channel width of 320 MHz, which allows for high point-to-point speeds, which may be in demand when building wireless bridges or connecting high-resolution NVR cameras. The new Wi-Fi 7 standard ...

Review of the Zyxel WAX630S access point and the XGS1250-12 switch: an inexpensive tandem for Wi-Fi 6 and a multi-gigabit LAN

If you choose an access point for rooms with high traffic, for example, for restaurants, halls of business centers or for conference halls, then you most likely need a model with Wi-Fi 6 support and a total bandwidth above 2Gbps. As a rule, such devices have a price of about $1000, and their characteristics exceed the requirements of a typical customer. If you choose an access point for rooms with high traffic, for example, for restaurants, halls of business centers or for conference halls, ...

What's new in Wi-Fi 7

Wi-Fi 7 increases the maximum channel size from 160 MHz to 320 MHz, which immediately doubles the bandwidth to a fantastic 46 Gbps. The Wi-Fi 7 standard can also work either on two sets of channels with a width of 160 MHz, or on one channel with a width of 320 MHz, it is also possible to work with several access points at the same time. Wi-Fi 7 or 802.11be is the next Wi-Fi standard that the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) is working on, which promises to raise the ...

Overview of the capabilities of the IP-COM ProFi controller for wireless networks

In the IP-COM company's model range, a separate direction has been allocated for equipment controlled by centralized ProFi software. Today, even in small projects, it is important to be able to make friends with the switch with access points not only at the network level, but also in a visual editor, placing the devices on the floor map in order to track statistics from one window, update firmware, decommission and change devices without disrupting the network. Currently, these capabilities make ...

Testing Zyxel solution for HoReCa: access points WAC5302D-Sv2, WAC-500H and GS2220-28HP PoE switch

Yes, let many people believe that Wi-Fi is also Wi-Fi in Africa, but the wireless network in a cafe will be radically different from the network in some workshop or warehouse. First of all, you need to understand that the main customers of a public wireless network in a restaurant are visitors who need to be authorized through the Captive Portal to comply with legal requirements. Let's start with the definition of the beautiful word "HoReCa": it is not a female name and not a ...
