OPERATION GUIDE

The PCTEL AP-WiFi-1200 Outdoor Industrial Access Point is a robust solution 
designed to meet the challenges of any outdoor or industrial environment. The 
2x2 802.11ac Wave 2 WiFi radios operate in both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. A 
Bluetooth 5.1 radio option is standard. All antennas are external to the enclosure to 
provide flexibility in selecting the antennas for optimal coverage. 

The AP-WiFi-1200 1000/100/10 Mbps wired Ethernet interface provides network 
connectivity along with power per the 802.3at Type 1 Class 3 Power over Ethernet 
specification. Data rates of 867 Mbps/114 Mbps are achievable over the 5 GHz and 
2.4 GHz radios respectively with an aggregate dual-radio rate of up to 1 Gbps. Low 
power consumption and high WiFi transmit power make the AP-WiFi-1200 a clear 
choice for deployments where high performance is needed.

The compact enclosure weighs just over 3.2 pounds (1.45 kg) and is only  
5.79" x 7.84" x 2.50". The AP-WiFi-1200 can be deployed in extreme weather  
environments with an operating temperature range between -40°C and +65°C 
[+55°C with a full solar loading of 1200 W/m2]. It can also withstand wind gusts up 
to 165 mph. An IP-67 rating offers extended dust and water protection in  
most conditions.

Deployment is made easy with simple and convenient mounting options.

This Operation Manual covers AP-WiFi-1200 regulatory domain for United States, 
Canada and Europe.
