Mist AP17 Tri Band Wi-Fi 7 IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax/be 9.38 Gbit/s Wireless Access Point - Indoor - Yes

The Juniper AP17 High-Performance Access Point is a purpose-built Wi-Fi 7 wall-plate access point designed to deliver enterprise-class performance in space-constrained indoor environments. Optimized for growing organizations that require high capacity, low latency, and reliable simultaneous device connectivity, the AP17 features a tri-band configuration across 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz, and a dedicated scanning radio for continuous network assurance. This cost-effective design enables top-level performance and efficiency, making AP17 an ideal solution for hospitality, retail stores, campus classrooms, student housing, multidwelling unit buildings, and distributed business location deployments where discreet form factors and consistent user experience are critical.

To support modern in-room requirements, the AP17 extends its capabilities beyond Wi-Fi with an integrated Internet of Things (IoT) radio supporting Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and 802.15.4 based standards like Zigbee and Thread. This allows organizations to seamlessly deploy IoT devices for smart locks, occupancy sensors, and environmental controls, without the cost and complexity of an overlay network. The AP17 also includes Ethernet ports to provide secure wired connectivity for critical devices like IP phones, point of sale (POS) terminals, or streaming media players, consolidating all in-room network services into a single, cloud-managed platform.
