HPE Networking Instant On AP22D 2x2 Wi-Fi 6 Desk/Wall Access Point (S1U76A)

The HPE Networking Instant On AP22D 2x2 Wi-Fi 6 Desk/Wall Access Point (S1U76A) is a high-performance, flexible wireless access point designed for small to medium-sized businesses that require reliable, fast, and secure Wi-Fi connectivity. With the latest Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) technology, the AP22D delivers enhanced speed, capacity, and efficiency, making it an excellent choice for businesses with high device density and bandwidth-intensive applications. Its versatile desk or wall-mountable design allows for easy installation, whether in offices, conference rooms, retail spaces, or other professional environments.

Wi-Fi 6 for Better Speed, Capacity, and Efficiency

The AP22D is powered by Wi-Fi 6 technology, offering up to 1,775 Mbps combined throughput (574 Mbps on 2.4GHz and 1,201 Mbps on 5GHz). Wi-Fi 6 significantly improves speed, capacity, and overall network efficiency compared to previous Wi-Fi generations, making it ideal for environments where numerous devices are connected simultaneously. This ensures seamless connectivity for high-demand applications, including video conferencing, large file transfers, and cloud services, all while minimizing latency and congestion.

Flexible Desk/Wall Mountable Design

The AP22D’s design allows for flexible installation, either as a desk mount or wall mount, providing businesses with versatile deployment options based on their space and network layout. This makes it a perfect choice for businesses that want to integrate Wi-Fi 6 into their existing infrastructure without requiring a traditional ceiling-mounted access point. Its discreet design ensures it can be easily integrated into a variety of office and business environments while maintaining a professional aesthetic.

Cloud-Based Management for Easy Setup and Monitoring

With HPE Instant On cloud-based management, businesses can easily set up, monitor, and manage their Wi-Fi network remotely. The Instant On mobile app or web portal provides an intuitive interface for configuring the network, managing security settings, and troubleshooting. This easy-to-use platform allows administrators to create guest networks, set access controls, monitor bandwidth usage, and ensure network security—all from anywhere, anytime. The cloud management platform ensures you don’t need on-site IT expertise, making it ideal for businesses with limited IT resources.

Robust Security Features

The AP22D supports WPA3 encryption, the latest and most secure Wi-Fi security standard, to ensure your business network remains protected against unauthorized access. It also offers secure guest access and VLAN support, enabling businesses to isolate network traffic and ensure sensitive data remains protected. This enhanced security makes the AP22D suitable for any business environment, from small offices to larger retail spaces and hospitality venues.

Energy-Efficient and Cost-Effective

Designed to minimize operational costs, the AP22D is energy-efficient, supporting Power over Ethernet (PoE). This allows both power and data to be delivered over a single Ethernet cable, eliminating the need for additional power adapters or outlets. Its PoE capability simplifies installation and reduces cabling costs, making it an ideal choice for businesses looking to reduce their total cost of ownership while improving network performance.
