Fortinet FAP-221E-V 867Mbps 1 x RJ-45 PoE+ Wireless Access Point

Product Description

The Fortinet FAP-221E-V is a robust and efficient wireless access point designed to deliver high-speed Wi-Fi connectivity in enterprise settings. Operating under the 802.11ac Wave 2 standard, it supports dual-band functionality, providing simultaneous access on both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radio bands. The 5 GHz band is capable of achieving aggregate data rates of up to 867 Mbps, ensuring that demanding applications and a growing number of client devices can operate without performance degradation. This makes it suitable for environments requiring reliable wireless performance for tasks such as video conferencing, large file transfers, and cloud-based applications. Connectivity for the FAP-221E-V is provided via a single Gigabit Ethernet port, which supports Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+). This feature simplifies installation by allowing the access point to receive both power and data through a single Ethernet cable, eliminating the need for local power adapters and reducing cabling complexity. The PoE+ standard (IEEE 802.3at) ensures sufficient power delivery for the access point's operations, even under load. As part of the Fortinet Security Fabric, the FAP-221E-V is designed for centralized management through FortiGate Next-Generation Firewalls or FortiWLC Wireless LAN Controllers. This integration allows for unified security policies, simplified deployment, and efficient network management. The access point also incorporates internal antennas, contributing to a sleek and unobtrusive physical design, making it suitable for various indoor deployment scenarios where aesthetics are a consideration. Its combination of performance, power efficiency, and integrated security management makes it a compelling choice for businesses seeking to enhance their wireless infrastructure.
