TP-Link TL-WA1201 AC1200 Wireless Access Point

Overview 

The TP-Link TL-WA1201 AC1200 Wireless Access Point is a device that allows you to create a wireless network in your home or office. It can be used to extend the range of your existing wireless network or to create a new wireless network from scratch. The device supports the 802.11ac wireless standard and has a maximum data rate of 1200Mbps, which is suitable for high-bandwidth activities such as streaming video or online gaming.

Lighting-Fast AC1200 Wi-Fi 

Upgrade your home or office network with the advanced 802.11ac Wave 2 AP, which offers dual-band speeds of up to 1200 Mbps—three times the performance of Wireless N. MU-MIMO technology enables the AP to serve multiple devices simultaneously without congestion or latency. All devices get their data faster and Wi-Fi is used more efficiently!

Gigabit-Class Wired Performance

The gigabit Ethernet port makes full use of gigabit-class bandwidth provided by a local ISP to ensure reliable network connections. It also provides an ultra-fast connection for wired devices such as PCs, IPTVs, and game consoles, etc.

Deploy Anywhere With Just One Cable 

Power over Ethernet (PoE) allows your Ethernet cable to carry electrical power and data simultaneously, making deployment effortless and flexible. An elegant appearance and simple mounting design make it easy to attach the Access Point to any wall or desktop, blending in perfectly with most interior decoration.

Boosted Wi-Fi Coverage 

Four external antennas equipped with Beamforming technology concentrate Wi-Fi signals towards your devices to extend reliable Wi-Fi to every corner of your home or office—even over long distances.

Captive Portal Marketing 

Captive Portal provides a secure guest network and offers unique marketing opportunities, especially for small businesses like cafes or salons. Utilize a flexibly designed portal page—requiring customers to view an advertisement or accept a set of terms for internet access—to improve brand awareness or deliver marketing messages.

Multi-Mode 4 in 1 

Multiple operation modes are supported to give you full flexibility to tailor the Access Point to fit your network’s needs.

*Maximum wireless signal rates are the physical rates derived from IEEE Standard 802.11 specifications. Actual wireless data throughput and wireless coverage are not guaranteed and will vary as a result of 1) environmental factors, including building materials, physical objects, and obstacles, 2) network conditions, including local interference, volume and density of traffic, product location, network complexity, and network overhead, and 3) client limitations, including rated performance, location, connection, quality, and client condition.    

^‡Use of MU-MIMO requires clients to also support MU-MIMO.
