Product identity

The Sophos AP6 840 is a Wi-Fi 6 indoor access point built for medium to high-density environments such as offices and higher education campuses. It operates on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands with 4x4:4 MIMO and internal omnidirectional antennas. Management is available through Sophos Central cloud platform with a valid support subscription or via a local web interface for standalone use. The unit is plenum-rated and carries medical equipment certification.

Deciding specification

A single 2.5 Gbps Ethernet port with PoE+ delivers both data and up to 30 W of power, so the AP requires a compatible PoE+ injector or switch that can supply 802.3at. Without that infrastructure the device cannot operate, and no separate power adapter is included in the package.

Sustained-load behaviour

Maximum power draw is rated at 30 W while the radio hardware supports aggregate theoretical rates of 3550 Mbps across both bands. The plenum-rated chassis meets UL2043 and EN 60601-1-2, allowing continuous operation in ceiling voids and healthcare settings without thermal throttling or compliance concerns.

Questions about this item

What does the 3550 Mbps combined rate mean for actual throughput on a 4x4:4 Wi-Fi 6 access point?

The 3550 Mbps is the theoretical maximum across both radios — 1150 Mbps on 2.4 GHz and 2400 Mbps on 5 GHz — but real-world throughput will be lower due to overhead, client capabilities and environmental factors.

How does the single 2.5G Ethernet port with PoE+ limit the AP6 840 in practice?

The 2.5G uplink caps total wired backhaul at 2.5 Gbps and requires an 802.3at PoE+ source delivering at least 25.5 W, with the AP drawing up to 30 W maximum.

What mounting hardware is needed for the 225 x 43 x 225 mm plenum-rated unit?

The indoor AP weighs 1.2 kg and fits standard ceiling tiles or wall brackets; its UL 2043 plenum rating allows installation in air-handling spaces without extra enclosures.
