Unlocking Large Scale Wi-Fi Coverage
The Apogee™ 360 Wi-Fi antenna platform is a breakthrough in wireless technology, designed to deliver expansive, high-performance Wi-Fi coverage with minimal infrastructure.
Built for versatility and scalability, Apogee™ 360 gives businesses the ability to provide consistent, reliable connectivity across even the most challenging environments.
Omnidirectional Optimization
Apogee™ 360 is the world's first antenna platform that overcomes strict FCC RF power limits to produce Wi-Fi coverage areas of unprecedented size and performance. Developed through years of rigorous lab and field trials, Apogee's revolutionary approach to RF propagation unlocks the true potential of license-free networks and makes dependable, ubiquitous Wi-Fi coverage truly scalable. Apogee™ has been deployed with success in a variety of environments, including big box retail, distribution centers, air cargo hubs, intermodal freight depots, farmland, urban centers, and more.
more than 10x coverage
Inside apogee360
Just one of Apogee's four 90-degree panel antennas can deliver high-quality Wi-Fi coverage over 5 acres, depending on the environment and application. Together, these panels extend reliable coverage across up to 20 acres with up to 90% less infrastructure, which leads to lower CAPEX and OPEX, significantly boosting ROI and delivering the most cost-effective large-scale Wi-Fi 5 and Wi-Fi 6 deployments available.
4-Panel Phased Array Antenna
- 90-degree beam width
- Supports 2400 MHz to 2485 MHz
- Supports 5250 MHz to 5900 MHz (Wi-Fi 5 and Wi-Fi 6)
- Asymmetric Gain™ (9 dBi Tx gain and 24 dBi Rx gain)
- Each 90-degree panel can be independently configured as 5 GHz, 2.4 GHz, or dual band
- Vertical, horizontal, and Aura Wireless proprietary hybrid polarity. Like band selection, polarity can be assigned on a port by port basis
Ports and Connected Devices
- 4 SMA male RF ports. Each port can be configured as single band or dual band
- Each port can be configured independently as vertical, horizontal, or hybrid polarity
- Supports FCC-compliant APs equipped with external RF ports
- One RJ45 PoE+ Ethernet port
MIMO and Apogee™
- 4x4 MIMO (about 90-degree coverage): assign four external radio chains to a single Apogee panel (about a 90-degree sector)
- 2x2 MIMO (about 90-degree coverage): assign both external ports of a 2x2 radio to a single Apogee panel (about a 90-degree sector)
- 2x2 MIMO across about 180 degrees: use two 2x2 radios or one 4x4 radio split as 2x2 + 2x2, assigning two chains to each of two adjacent panels (about 180 degrees total)
- Beamwidth
- 360°
- Coverage, up to
- 20 acres
- Weight
- 22 lbs
