Wireless Access Point Alcatel-Lucent OAW-AP1301-RW 2.4GHz 5GHz Wi-Fi 802.11ac

The Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess Stellar AP1301 is a dual-band wireless access point that supports 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi‑Fi with 802.11ax (Wi‑Fi 6) technology. It delivers higher throughput, increased client capacity and more efficient airtime allocation compared with previous Wi‑Fi generations. The AP1301 supports aggregate data rates up to approximately 1.77 Gbps (about 1.2 Gbps on 5 GHz and 573 Mbps on 2.4 GHz) and integrates features such as OFDMA, DL MU‑MIMO and 1024‑QAM to improve performance for bandwidth‑ and latency‑sensitive applications. The device is part of the OmniAccess Stellar portfolio and includes RF radio dynamic adjustment, distributed control Wi‑Fi architecture, Unified Access network admission control, built‑in application intelligence and analytics.

Advantages

The AP1301 provides Wi‑Fi 6 performance for high‑density environments, offering increased capacity for voice, video and IoT devices while maintaining secure network access. Dual radios operate simultaneously on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands to serve more clients, and the unit supports PoE and gigabit Ethernet for flexible deployment. Built‑in analytics and distributed control simplify management and help maintain stable, predictable wireless performance.

Key specifications

How to use

Mount the AP1301 in a suitable indoor location with good line‑of‑sight to client devices. Connect the unit to the network switch using a Cat5e/6 cable and supply power via PoE or a compatible power injector. Configure SSIDs, security (WPA3/WPA2 or controllersupported Unified Access), and radio settings through the OmniAccess management platform or local management interface. Use the built‑in analytics to monitor traffic, client distribution and RF conditions, and adjust channel and power settings as recommended by the management tools.

Recommendations

Place access points to avoid RF interference and to provide consistent coverage; in high‑density areas deploy additional APs to distribute client load, and enable Wi‑Fi 6 features (OFDMA, MU‑MIMO, 1024‑QAM) for best performance with supported client devices.
