Frequently Asked Questions
How does an in-wall access point retrofit existing Ethernet infrastructure?
The UAP-IW mounts into existing wired Ethernet jacks, converting them into wireless hotspots. This reuses in-wall cabling without new cable runs or structural changes.
What is the coverage range of this in-wall HD access point?
The UAP-IW delivers coverage extending 25 metres from installation. Exact range depends on walls and interference. For multi-room coverage, place units in multiple Ethernet outlets.
Can I use both WiFi and a wired connection from the same in-wall jack?
Yes. Each UAP-IW includes one RJ45 data port and one PoE port, allowing you to connect a wired device to the data port while the unit provides WiFi to the room.
What does 150 Mbps throughput mean for typical office use?
150 Mbps is sufficient for web browsing, email, and basic file transfers in a single room. For bandwidth-intensive applications or multiple simultaneous users, newer models like the UAP-AC-IW offer higher speeds.
Is this model suitable for a small office or home office?
Yes. The UAP-IW is ideal for home offices and small businesses where one or two rooms need WiFi from existing Ethernet outlets. One unit covers a room; multiple units cover multiple areas.
How is power supplied to this in-wall access point?
The UAP-IW is powered via PoE (Power over Ethernet) through the PoE port. No separate power outlet is required at the installation location.
What are the typical lead times for in-wall access points in the UAE?
Procure.ae supplies the UAE and GCC on a request-a-quote basis. Contact the team to check current availability and delivery timelines for this model.
Can Procure.ae assist with retrofit installations in existing buildings?
