Quick Start

Overview

This quick start describes how to install and access ADTRAN’s Bluesocket 6040 access point (BSAP), a WiFi-6 (802.11ax) 4x4 indoor AP designed to provide 

enterprise-grade performance within high-density wireless environments. This robust AP simultaneously supports four transmit and four receive streams with data 

rates up to 3.5 Gbps (2.4 Gbps for 5 GHz and 1.1 Gbps for 2.4 GHz) using four internal MU-MIMO 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 6040 is fully functional with 802.3at Power over 

Ethernet (PoE+), support for Bluetooth 5.0/LE radios for Beacons or Internet of Things (IoT) applications, 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 WiFi 6.
