Outdoor WiFi 6 access point
The Alta Labs AP6-PRO Outdoor is an IP68-rated wireless access point built for permanent outdoor deployment. It operates reliably from -40 to 70 °C and delivers a combined 6.3 Gbps across dual bands. The unit targets installers who need enterprise-grade coverage in exposed locations such as campuses, yards or industrial sites.
PoE+ powered, wall or pole mount
A single Ethernet cable supplies both data and up to 25 W via PoE+, so no separate mains feed is required at the mounting point. The white enclosure measures 8.3" x 5.9" x 3.5" and weighs 1.9 lb, allowing straightforward attachment to walls or poles. Bluetooth is included for initial setup, while VLAN tagging (802.1Q) keeps traffic segmented across the wired backbone.
WiFi 6 platform with 4096 QAM
The Qualcomm six-stream platform uses 4×4 MU-MIMO on 5 GHz and 2×2 on 2.4 GHz, reaching 5.8 Gbps and 573 Mbps respectively. 4096 QAM modulation — a feature associated with WiFi 7 — boosts spectral efficiency, yet the radio remains a WiFi 6 device. Clients without WiFi 6 or 4096 QAM support will not attain the headline rates, and the 25 W ceiling limits deployment to PoE+ switches or injectors.

Questions about this item
What Ethernet standard does the AP6-PRO Outdoor use, and what is its practical throughput cap?
The AP6-PRO Outdoor connects via a single Ethernet port powered by PoE+ and delivers a combined wireless capacity of up to 6.3 Gbps, with 5 GHz reaching 5.8 Gbps and 2.4 GHz up to 573 Mbps.
What are the physical dimensions and mounting requirements for the AP6-PRO Outdoor?
The unit measures 8.3" x 5.9" x 3.5" and weighs 1.9 lb; its IP68-rated enclosure operates from -40 to 70°C, so it mounts on any pole or wall that can support its weight in those conditions.
How is the AP6-PRO Outdoor installed, and which step is most often missed?
Connect the AP to a PoE+ switch or injector supplying up to 25 W, then adopt it in the Alta mobile app or Alta Cloud; the step most often missed is configuring VLAN 802.1Q tags before the first client connects.
