Aerohive AP170 802.11n Outdoor Wireless Access Point
The AP170 is a high-performing, cost-effective and rugged 802.11n outdoor access point that provides high-performance dual concurrent (2.4GHz and 5GHz) 802.11n (2x2) MIMO as well as a 10/100/1000 Ethernet port.

The AP170 is designed for high bandwidth demand outdoor wireless environments. With extended temperature range and a watertight chassis, the AP170 can deployed in most every outdoor environment on earth.
With four antennas and the ability to provide service concurrently on both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz bands, the AP170 provides both high speed mesh and support for 802.11n as well as legacy 802.11a, b, and g clients, through Aerohive’s industry unique and resilient controller-less architecture.
