MikroTik cAP XL ac Ceiling Access Point for High-Performance Wireless Networks
The MikroTik cAP XL ac brings powerful dual-band Wi-Fi to any environment, designed for both aesthetics and performance. With an enhanced high-gain antenna and sleek ceiling-mounted design, it delivers wide coverage while remaining unobtrusive. Ideal for offices, hotels, or public spaces, this access point ensures reliable, high-speed connectivity for all your devices.
The cAP XL ac ceiling access point offers dual-band wireless on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, supporting maximum speeds of 300 Mbit/s and 867 Mbit/s respectively. Its upgraded antenna and built-in reflector double the coverage area compared to previous models. With two Gigabit Ethernet ports (one supporting PoE input and the other PoE output), network expansion is simple and flexible. Its low-profile design blends seamlessly into ceilings while providing 360-degree wireless coverage, minimizing signal interference from walls or large objects.
High-Gain Antenna and Extended Coverage
Equipped with a larger high-gain antenna and higher sensitivity, the cAP XL ac ensures wider and more stable wireless coverage. The built-in reflector optimizes signal distribution, covering up to 100% more area than earlier models. Ceiling installation improves signal strength by avoiding obstacles like metal partitions, large TVs, or dense furniture.
Dual-Band Wi-Fi for Reliable Connectivity
The dual-band radio supports both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, providing flexible options for devices and reducing network congestion. Its 360-degree signal range ensures consistent performance throughout your space, making it ideal for offices, public areas, or multi-room setups.
Seamless Network Expansion with Ethernet and PoE
The cAP XL ac includes two 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports. The first port accepts standard 802.3af/at PoE input, while the second port provides passive PoE output, enabling further network expansion. This allows additional wired devices to connect without requiring separate power sources, making it perfect for complex network layouts.
Sleek Ceiling Design for Minimal Visual Impact
Designed to be unobtrusive, the low-profile ceiling mount blends with your interior, resembling a smoke detector rather than a bulky router. This makes it suitable for areas where aesthetics and security matter, as the device remains out of reach while delivering high-speed connectivity.
Advanced Performance and Stability
Powered by an IPQ-4018 CPU with 128 MB RAM and 16 MB storage, the cAP XL ac runs RouterOS with license level 4, ensuring reliable performance for demanding environments. Its dual-chain wireless radio supports repeater mode for added flexibility, allowing you to extend coverage when needed.
