Indoor Wi-Fi 6 Access Point
The WatchGuard AP330 is an indoor wireless access point built for Wi-Fi 6 networks. It uses six internal omnidirectional antennas with 2x2 MIMO to serve clients on the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. A single 2.5 Gbps PoE+ RJ-45 port provides both data and power, drawing a peak of 15.9 W. The unit supports WPA3 encryption for secure connections.
Suits mid-density sites.
This access point fits mid-density indoor environments such as offices, schools or retail spaces that need Wi-Fi 6 capacity. It requires an active WatchGuard Management License — Standard or USP — to activate and manage the device through WatchGuard Cloud. Buyers who need outdoor deployment, a model that works without a recurring licence, or multi-gigabit uplinks beyond 2.5 Gbps should look at other product lines.
2.5 Gbps PoE+ uplink decides fit
The single 2.5 Gbps PoE+ Ethernet port is the critical specification: it sets the maximum wired backhaul speed and delivers power without a separate injector. If your switch infrastructure provides 2.5 Gbps PoE+ ports, the AP330 can operate at its full 1.2 Gbps 5 GHz and 574 Mbps 2.4 GHz wireless data rates. If your network only offers 1 Gbps PoE or no PoE at all, the access point will be limited by that uplink.

Questions about this item
Does the AP330 need a ceiling mount kit or can it sit on a shelf?
The unit is indoor-only with six internal omnidirectional antennas and a single 2.5 Gbps PoE+ RJ-45 port; no external brackets are included so a flat surface or standard ceiling tile clip works.
What is the step people miss when powering the AP330 through the RJ-45 port?
Connect the Ethernet cable to a switch or injector that delivers PoE+; the access point draws up to 15.9 W peak and will not start on standard PoE.
When will the internal antennas or radios need replacement?
The six internal antennas are fixed for the life of the AP330; only the WatchGuard Cloud management licence must stay active to keep firmware updates and radio calibration current.
