Overview
Overview
The AP One Rugged takes Peplink’s business Wi-Fi into harsh environments. Simultaneous 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radios with 2×2 MIMO and external omni antennas deliver up to 866 Mbps on 5 GHz, while the ruggedised metal enclosure resists shock, vibration and extreme temperatures.
Three Gigabit Ethernet ports (one with 802.3at PoE input) and a 10–30V DC input give flexible installation in vehicles and cabinets, with an optional DIN rail mount for wall, pole or ceiling fitting. Railway (EN 50155) and E-Mark certifications support transport deployments, and InControl 2 manages the whole fleet from the cloud.
