In addition to the POE+ power supply, this access point offers many configuration options with rock-solid reliability.
I put it in place to replace a Netgear access point that was crashing regularly.
The WAP571 access point is well built and powerful. 3x3 MIMO in 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. Compatible with a, b, g, n and ac standards.
POE+ power supply is required (if no compatible switch is available, the POE+ injector SB-PWR-INJ2-EU will do the trick). POE+ power supply is only needed on one port, not useful for the second.
The 2 ethernet ports allow link aggregation with a compatible switch. A "static" link is required, the WAP571 does not seem to support the LACP protocol.
The WAP571 is accessible to all with the "wizard" at startup, but you need to be more expert for the fine tuning.
The device is delivered with a wall / ceiling mounting kit.
The delivery time was fast and as advertised. The box was too big for the contents, so it was a bit battered when it arrived. The contents were safe and sound.
