Important looks or results? Picking the Right Access Point

An access point (AP) is a device used in networks to convert wired Internet connections into those that may be broadcast wirelessly. Connecting to a wired device like a router, switch, or hub allows these devices to broadcast Wi-Fi throughout their range. The value of an access point has become increasingly clear as a result of scientific and technological progress. An access point is a necessary piece of equipment for any business or institution with a big number of wireless Internet users.

But when it comes to choose an AP, which do your priorities more, their performance or their appearance? Some people are more worried about aesthetics and want their access point to seem trendy and high-tech, which may become ornamental. On the other hand, some people are passionate about performance and want the highest bandwidth in every area. Additionally, the two APs that are going to be discussed here are definitely capable of catering to the various requirements that are posed by distinct individuals.


High-Efficiency Access Point (UAP-AC-PRO)

The Access Point AC Pro (UAP AC Pro) is a fashionable indoor/outdoor 802.11ac Wi-Fi access point with a moon-like design and a color scheme of pure white and blue that employs Wave 1 technology to achieve a whopping 2+ Gbps aggregate throughput rate on both the 5 GHz (33 MIMO) and 2.4 GHz (33 MIMO) bands. UAP AC Pro's signal may go up to 122 meters (400 feet), enabling enhanced multi-user capability at wider distances. This AP supports both Power over Ethernet (PoE) and Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+), and it has two Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) RJ-45 ports and one USB port. The UniFi Network web software or mobile app makes it possible to quickly and easily set up and administer the UAP AC Pro.
