What types of access points are there?
Standalone devices vs. controller-based systems
- Standalone access points are suitable for smaller installations or additions
- Controller-based solutions offer centralized management for multiple devices – ideal for larger networks
Indoor vs. outdoor access points
- Indoor access points are optimized for office environments (e.g., Cisco WiFi Access Point)
- Outdoor variants are weatherproof and designed for outdoor use – e.g., for warehouses or outdoor locations
Buying a WiFi access point: Pay attention to the frequency band (2.4 GHz/5 GHz/6 GHz), supported standards (Wi-Fi 5/6/6E), number of simultaneous connections, PoE capability, and security features (WPA3, VLANs, etc.).
Which access point is right for your business?
Choosing the right access point depends on several factors:
- Number of users: For high user density, models with multiple antennas and MU-MIMO are recommended
- Building structure: Thick walls or large areas require devices with a long range or mesh functionality
- Network security: Use devices with up-to-date encryption and management options such as VLANs or RADIUS
Examples of professional devices:
- Aruba AP 505: Compact model with Wi-Fi 6 – ideal for SMEs
- Aruba AP 515: For high user numbers – suitable for offices, educational institutions, or retail
- Aruba AP 635: Wi-Fi 6E with 6 GHz band – for maximum performance in modern IT environments
- Cisco Air AP2802I-E-K9: High capacity, flexible deployment, controller-enabled
