Access Point U6 Mesh
U6-Mesh€160 excl. VAT
Access Point U6 Mesh is a small Wi-Fi 6 access point that works both indoors and outdoors, on a table, wall or pole.
Who it suits
Suits homes and small offices where Wi-Fi should reach an outbuilding, a workshop, a boathouse or a patio that the indoor network does not cover. It can complement a Cloud Gateway with built-in Wi-Fi, and connects with a network cable that also carries its power. Where a cable cannot be run, it can connect wirelessly to a wired access point, known as mesh, but every wireless hop costs speed and a cable always gives the best result.
