1.1 Overview

The NP727 In-wall Wireless Access Point is an in-the-wall Wi-Fi IEEE 802.11b/g AP, designed to blend with any
office or home interior architecture and furnishings effortlessly.
The compact NP727, with its small form factor can fit in a standard wall outlet box, and hides the wall cutout with its
faceplate. Its front panel features LED status indicators and an RJ45 wall jack. It has the interfaces to serve both
wireless and wired LAN access. The simplistic yet stylish design of NP727 allows it to blend into a working or a
living environment seamlessly.
By utilizing Power over Ethernet (PoE), the NP727 comes with an advantage of running fewer cables in the duct.
The Power over Ethernet (PoE) LAN port on the NP727 serves as the power feed as well as the wired network
feed. Alternatively, it can also be powered via an AC adapter when a PoE switch is not available.
The NP727 is an easy-to-install and cost-effective solution for most indoor wireless deployments, including hotel
rooms, apartments, offices, classrooms, libraries, private homes and public kiosks etc.
