WatchGuard AP230W Hardware Guide
The WatchGuard AP230W is a high-performance 2x2 Wi-Fi 6 802.11ax designed for indoor wall mount deployments, and supports 574 Mbps data rate on the 2.4 GHz band and 1.2 Gbps on the 5 GHz band.
The AP230W also has a third 1x1 dual band 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radio dedicated for security scanning to detect and respond to Wi-Fi threats.
Four additional Ethernet LAN ports provide wired connectivity. One of these wired ports also provides PoE/PSE output (802.3af) to power other devices.
You can power the access point with a PoE+ (Power over Ethernet) power source or an optional AC power adapter.
Access Point Management
You can manage your access point with WatchGuard Cloud. WatchGuard Cloud delivers simplified Wi-Fi management to easily deploy, configure, and report on one unified platform for security. It eliminates the need for any physical or virtual infrastructure requirements, with multi-tier and multi-tenant capabilities through a centralized WatchGuard Cloud management platform.
WatchGuard Cloud environments easily scale from one to an unlimited number of access points across multiple locations. Access points can be grouped in many ways including location, building, floor, customers, and remote users to maintain consistent policies across a distributed network.
