Cambium cnPilot e501S 11ac Outdoor Dual-band Access Point and Integrated Sector Antenna 256 clients

Model: PL-501S000A-US                                 

Cambium Networks cnPilot e501S Enterprise Outdoor Sector Access Point

Perfect for demanding, high density applications and longer range coverage across large areas, including: industrial or education campuses, enterprise and hospitality complexes, public parks and recreational areas, or just about any demanding outdoor environment requiring cost-effective, controller managed WLAN access points.

Operational superiority

• The E501S with integrated sector antenna supports 256 client associations, 16 SSIDs, WPA-2 encryption, Dynamic VLANs, DFS channels, Access Control Lists (ACL), and more. The 802.11ac E501S is the essential workhorse for today’s demanding, high density outdoor Wi-Fi networks.

High performance Wi–Fi network

• All cnPilot’s Enterprise access points (APs) support features like controller-less roaming, dynamic channel selection, automatic transmit power control, band steering, and more – essential features for easy Wi-Fi operations.

Mesh

• Rapidly setup multi-hop mesh networks either dedicating one radio (e.g.: 5 GHz) for mesh backhaul, or using both bands for client access simultaneously.

Wireless Backhaul Integration

• The aux PoE port on the E501S offers PoE out, eliminating the need for a second power line – perfect for powering on a standard 802.3af camera, or on Cambium’s PMP 450 or ePMP backhaul subscriber modules (SMs) for wireless backhaul enabled Wi-Fi hotspots.

Resilience

• Dual on-board Active/Standby memory banks ensure higher availability. The E501S can store two versions of the software – defaulting to a working operational software if needed – reducing the likelihood of site visits and increasing network up-time.
