Huawei eKitEngine AP362E

Make SME Network Easier and Smarter

Product Overview :

Huawei eKitEngine AP362E is an indoor access point (AP) in compliance with the Wi-Fi 6(802.11ax) standard.

It provides services simultaneously on the 2.4 GHz (2×2 MIMO) and 5 GHz (2×2 MIMO) frequency bands, delivering a data rate of up to 2.975 Gbps.

The product adopts a round design with a diameter of 180 mm, which is better blended with the decoration style. The AP supports multiple installation modes, such as wall or ceiling mounting, with simple installation steps; metal mounting brackets are durable and resistant to deformation. It is suitable for indoor coverage scenarios such as small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), budget chain hotels, commercial stores, and primary and secondary schools.

You can use the EasyWeb or wireless access controller (WAC) to locally deploy and manage APs, or use the HUAWEI eKit App & SNC platform to remotely manage and maintain APs. In this way, network projects can be handed over or managed together, simplifying network O&M.

Feature Description :

• Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) Standard

  As the Wi-Fi 6 standard defined in IEEE 802.11, 802.11ax improves the user access capacity and bandwidth in high-density access scenarios, reducing service latency and enhancing user experience.

• Multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) on both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands, allowing an AP to transmit data to and receive data from multiple stations (STAs) simultaneously and multiplying the utilization of radio spectrum resources.
• 1024-quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM), improving data transmission efficiency by 25% compared with 802.11ac (256-QAM).

  MU-MIMO

• The AP supports MU-MIMO and supports a maximum of four spatial streams (two on the 2.4 GHz frequency band and two on the 5 GHz frequency band). The MU-MIMO technology enables an AP to send data to multiple STAs simultaneously, which doubles the radio spectrum resource usage, increases the number of access users and bandwidth, and improves user experience in multi-user access scenarios.

High-Speed Dual-Band Access

• The AP supports 160 MHz frequency bandwidth, which increases the number of available data subcarriers and expands transmission channels. In addition, the AP adopts 1024-QAM and MU-MIMO to achieve a rate of up to 0.575 Gbps on the 2.4 GHz band and 2.4 Gbps on the 5 GHz band, meaning up to 2.975 Gbps for the device.

  Smart Antenna The dual-band smart antenna array technology and intelligent switchover algorithm enable the AP to intelligently sense the application environment and access density, achieving accurate Wi-Fi coverage and interference suppression. They together provide the optimal coverage direction and signal quality for each access STA, and offer seamless and smooth wireless network experience to users.

  Wired and Wireless Security Guarantee

  To ensure data security, this AP integrates wired and wireless security functions and provides comprehensive security protection.

  Authentication and encryption for wireless access

• The AP supports WEP, WPA/WPA2-PSK, WPA3-SAE, WPA/WPA2-PPSK, and WPA/WPA2/WPA3-802.1X authentication/encryption modes to ensure the security of wireless networks. The authentication mechanism is used to authenticate user identities so that only authorized users can access network resources. The encryption mechanism is used to encrypt data transmitted over wireless links to ensure that data can only be received and parsed by authorized users.

  Authentication and encryption for wired access

• The AP access control mechanism ensures that only authorized users can access the AP. Control and provisioning of wireless access point (CAPWAP) link protection and Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) encryption provide security guarantee and improve data transmission security between the AP and WAC.
