Introducing the WDAP-3600BE outdoor Wi-Fi 7 access point and the MGS-6311-24UPL6X Layer-3 multigig switch — engineered for high-density, high-throughput networks.
Overview
PLANET has unveiled two new networking devices — the WDAP-3600BE outdoor Wi-Fi 7 access point and the outdoor Wi-Fi 7 access point and the MGS-6311-24UPL6X Layer-3 managed multigigabit switch. These models are designed to deliver reliable, high-throughput wireless coverage and powerful PoE-enabled backbone switching for enterprise, industrial, and public-infrastructure deployments.
WDAP-3600BE — Rugged Outdoor Wi-Fi 7 Access Point
The WDAP-3600BE provides next-generation wireless performance in a weatherproof package for outdoor deployments that require high user density and low latency.
Key Features
- Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) — multi-gig throughput for demanding applications.
- High total throughput — support for combined high rates across 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.
- Rugged, weatherproof design — built for harsh outdoor environments and wide temperature ranges.
- Advanced radio tech — 4096-QAM, MU-MIMO, OFDMA, BSS Coloring and beamforming for stable multi-user performance.
- Flexible power & management — PoE+ and DC options; multiple operation modes and centralized management compatibility.
Typical Use Cases
- Outdoor campuses, resorts, and public Wi-Fi hotspots
- Smart city infrastructure and transit hubs
- Large events and environments with dense concurrent users
- IoT and surveillance networks that demand reliable wireless backhaul
MGS-6311-24UPL6X — Layer-3 Multigigabit Switch
The outdoor Wi-Fi 7 access point and the MGS-6311-24UPL6X is built to act as a powerful, PoE-rich backbone for networks that aggregate many access points and PoE devices while requiring advanced routing and security features.
Key Features
- 24 × 2.5GBASE-T ports plus 6 × 10G SFP+ uplinks for multigig distribution and high-capacity aggregation.
- 802.3bt PoE++ — high per-port power (up to 95 W) and a large total PoE budget to power Wi-Fi APs, cameras and IoT devices.
- Layer-3 routing — static routing, RIP, OSPF and VRRP for resilient inter-VLAN and multi-segment networks.
- Enterprise security & QoS — ACLs, 802.1X, DHCP Snooping, Dynamic ARP Inspection, IP Source Guard and advanced QoS.
- Resilience & multicast optimization — ERPS/fast recovery, MSTP, LACP, IGMP/MLD snooping and VLAN/Q-in-Q support.
Typical Use Cases
- Enterprise and campus backbone switching
- Hotels, multi-tenant buildings and ISPs requiring PoE distribution
- Aggregation for high-density wireless deployments (Wi-Fi 6/7 APs)
- Environments needing robust routing, security and redundancy
Combining a Wi-Fi 7 outdoor access point with a multigigabit, high-power PoE switch gives network planners a complete path from high-capacity wireless edge to resilient wired aggregation. These models help address rising bandwidth and low-latency needs for streaming, surveillance, and real-time IoT telemetry while simplifying deployment and power provisioning.
