WARNING!
Read all warnings, cautions, notes and installation instructions before installing or servicing this equipment.
This quick start guide describes how to install and access Adtran's Bluesocket 6120 access point (BSAP), a Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) 2x2 outdoor AP designed to provide
enterprise-grade performance within high-density wireless environments. This robust AP simultaneously supports two transmit and two receive streams with data
rates up to 1.7 Gbps (1.2 Gbps for 5 GHz and 574 Mbps for 2.4 GHz) using four external SMA-type antennas with up to 5 dBi peak gain, and supports zero-touch
provisioning using Adtran's virtual wireless local area network (vWLAN) cloud-management application. The BSAP 6120 is fully functional with 802.3at Power over
Ethernet (PoE+), WPA3 encryption and Wireless Intrusion Detection (W-IDS) for added security, support for the traditional DynamicRF, Neighbor Discovery, Layer 7
device fingerprinting features and the new multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO), orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA), basic service set (BSS) coloring,
advanced 1024-QAM, and target wake time (TWT) features for Wi-Fi 6.
