Physical Profile
The access point measures 6.85 inches in width and height with a depth of 1.18 inches, presenting a low-profile design that blends discreetly into ceiling tiles or mounted locations. Weighing approximately 1.5 pounds, it is lightweight yet durable for permanent installation. The internal antenna design eliminates external protrusions, maintaining a clean aesthetic while protecting the radio components.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 6.85" (174 mm), 6.85" (174 mm), 1.18" (30 mm), 1.50 lb (680 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.
