Huawei eKitEngine AP160 Wi-Fi 6 Wall Plate Access Point Product Overview
The Huawei eKitEngine AP160 is an enterprise grade indoor wall plate access point tailored for small to medium sized businesses. This dual radio device utilizes Wi-Fi 6 technology to provide reliable wireless networking in high density environments. It mounts directly into standard wall junction boxes, offering an ultra thin profile for hotels, dormitories, clinics, and private corporate offices.
Key Features and Capabilities
Dual Radio Wi-Fi 6 Performance
The AP160 supports the 802.11ax standard across two radios simultaneously. It operates on the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands to reduce network congestion and eliminate lag. The hardware leverages advanced modulation schemes like 1024-QAM alongside MU-MIMO and OFDMA technologies to maximize transmission efficiency.
Combined Gigabit Throughput
This access point provides a maximum theoretical wireless throughput rate of up to 1.775 Gbps. The 2.4 GHz band delivers up to 575 Mbps for standard data coverage, while the 5 GHz band reaches speeds up to 1.2 Gbps. This rapid delivery enables smooth 4K video streaming, quick file downloads, and stable cloud application performance.
Smart Antenna Technology
Built-in smart antennas use intelligent switchover algorithms to automatically adjust coverage direction and signal strength. This capability mitigates co-channel interference and guarantees full signal availability for moving clients throughout the space.
Ultra Thin Architectural Integration
Designed with an 8 mm ultra thin outer panel, the unit installs seamlessly into international standard 86 mm by 86 mm junction boxes. It fits flush against the wall like a standard electrical outlet, maintaining clean interior design aesthetics while preserving floor and ceiling space.
Dual Gigabit Ports and PoE
The device features one Gigabit Ethernet uplink port and one Gigabit Ethernet downlink port. It operates completely via standard Power over Ethernet, utilizing a single network cable to deliver both data and electrical power safely.
Versatile Cloud Management
The hardware functions across Fit, Fat, and Cloud management modes. Network deployment, barcode scanning onboarding, and maintenance operations are controlled remotely through the dedicated mobile app ecosystem.
