We Protect Your Access Points from Wi-Fi Hacks
Each WatchGuard access point has the flexibility to work as both an access point and a dedicated Wireless Intrusion Prevention System (WIPS) security sensor protecting 3rd party brand access points. Now you’ll create a Trusted Wireless Environment without having to exchange your existing infrastructure.


Multi-User MIMO
Your Wi- Fi will show no signs of slowing down with MU- MIMO allowing the AP to serve multiple customer devices downstream together. This decreases the time each device must await a transmission from the AP and accelerates your network. Considering a typical small to medium business( SMB) has a minimum of 50 devices including smartphones, tablets, and laptops, it’s vital to be ready to use the maximum volume of the Wi- Fi frequence spectrum as efficiently as possible.
Flexible Management Options
WatchGuard offers two management scenarios to satisfy the requirements of SMBs and distributed enterprises. you’ll manage any of our access points with either a Firebox via the Gateway Wireless Controller with lightweight feature set, or with WatchGuard’s Wi-Fi Cloud. And with the Wi- Fi Cloud you get an expanded set of features including strong WIPS security, social- enabled interned portals, and position- based analytics for optimal business insights. For ultimate peace of mind, believe a Firebox UTM-protected network with WatchGuard Wi-Fi Cloud-managed APs to understand the complete marketing and security potential of a Cloud-managed access point solution.
