Huawei eKitEngine AP361 Wi-Fi 6 Access Point
Huawei eKitEngine AP361 is an indoor Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) Access Point. It can simultaneously provide services on the 2.4 GHz (2x2 ) and 5 GHz (2x2 ) frequency bands. This AP features high bandwidth, high concurrency, and compact size, facilitating flexible deployment and saving customer investment. Such strengths make the AP a good fit for indoor coverage in SME markets, such as SOHO enterprise offices, small- and medium-sized hospitals, commercial real estate, budget chain hotels, and primary and secondary schools.

Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) standard
As the latest Wi-Fi standard defined in IEEE 802.11, 802.11ax improves the user access capacity and bandwidth in high-density access scenarios, reducing service latency and enhancing user experience.

802.11ax supports multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) on both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands, allowing an AP to transmit data to and receive data from multiple STAs simultaneously and multiplying the utilization of radio spectrum resources.

802.11ax supports 1024-quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM), improving data transmission efficiency by 25% compared with 802.11ac (supporting 256-QAM). Orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) technology enables the AP to transmit data to multiple STAs at the same time using different subcarriers, reducing latency and improving network efficiency. Spatial reuse (SR) technology uses basic service set (BSS) coloring to enable APs and STAs to distinguish overlapping BSSs, minimizing co-channel interference.

MU-MIMO
The AP supports MU-MIMO and a maximum of four spatial streams, two spatial streams at 2.4 GHz and two spatial streams at 5 GHz. The MU-MIMO technology enables an AP to send data to multiple STAs simultaneously, which doubles the radio spectrum resource usage, increases the number of access users and bandwidth, and improves user experience in high-density access scenarios.

High-speed access
The AP supports 80 MHz frequency bandwidth, which increases the number of available data subcarriers and extends transmission channels. In addition, the AP uses 1024-QAM and MU-MIMO technologies to achieve a rate of up to 0.575 Gbps on the 2.4 GHz frequency band and 1.2 Gbps on the 5 GHz frequency band, and 1.775 Gbps for the device.

High Density Boost technology
Huawei uses the following technologies to address challenges in high-density scenarios, including access problems, data congestion, and poor roaming experience

5G-prior access
The AP supports both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands. The 5G-prior access function enables the AP to steer STAs to the 5 GHz frequency band preferentially, which reduces loads and interference on the 2.4 GHz frequency band, improving user experience.

Wired and wireless dual security guarantee
To ensure data security, Huawei APs integrate wired and wireless security measures and provide comprehensive security protection.
