Hardware Specifications

The WatchGuard® AP family of wireless access points provide secure, reliable, wireless communications while
delivering high performance and broad coverage—a perfect combination of services to meet the needs of
enterprise-level customers, small businesses, branch offices, campuses, and hotels alike.
Internal antennas, slim cases, minimalist labeling, and small LEDs, coupled with wall and ceiling mount
options, make these devices ideal for low profile deployment scenarios. Power can be provided by any Power
over Ethernet (PoE+) power source or an AC adapter. WatchGuard AP420 devices are high performance,
enterprise access points that feature 4x4:4 MU-MIMO 802.11ac Wave 2 capabilities with a dedicated third
radio for security scanning and automated over-the-air attack prevention.
There are two ways you can manage your AP420 device:
WatchGuard Wi-Fi Cloud
A powerful cloud-based enterprise wireless management solution for AP configuration, security, and
monitoring.
WatchGuard Firebox Gateway Wireless Controller
Local management, configuration, security, and monitoring of APs directly from your WatchGuard
Firebox. The WatchGuard Firebox requires Fireware OS v11.12.4 or higher.
Note: The third-radio is not available when managed locally with a Gateway Wireless Controller.
