Cambium Networks XE5-8 Five-Radio Tri-Band Indoor Wi-Fi 6/6E Access Point

Wi-Fi 6E support extends the capacity of Wi-Fi into the 6GHz band, more than tripling the wireless spectrum available. With high-speed software-defined radios, the Cambium XE5-8 Access Point enables seamless transition to Wi-Fi 6E with the ability to easily change from dual-band to tri-band (2.4 GHz, 5GHz, 6GHz) support when sufficient 6GHz clients are available. The Cambium XE5-8 is fully backward compatible with existing Wi-Fi technology, enabling simultaneous support of new high speed clients, legacy clients, low-bitrate IoT devices, and more in a single wireless infrastructure.

The Cambium XE5-8 Access Point comes with Limited Lifetime Warranty providing return and repair service on the access point from date of purchase until end of life of the product.
