MikroTik hAP ac Router – Dual-Band Wi-Fi with Gigabit Ethernet

Description

The MikroTik hAP ac (RB962UiGS-5HacT2HnT) is a dual-band wireless router designed for homes, small offices, shops and other environments that require reliable Wi-Fi and wired network connectivity. It combines 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz wireless networking with five Gigabit Ethernet ports, an SFP cage and MikroTik RouterOS in one compact indoor device.

DUAL-BAND WIRELESS NETWORKING

The MikroTik hAP ac supports simultaneous wireless operation on the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands. The 2.4 GHz band is useful for compatible devices and general indoor coverage, while the 5 GHz band supports faster wireless connections for compatible client devices in suitable conditions.

The router supports 802.11b/g/n on 2.4 GHz and 802.11a/n/ac on 5 GHz. Its advertised combined wireless data rate is up to approximately 1167 Mbps across both bands. Actual throughput depends on client capabilities, signal strength, interference, distance and network configuration.

GIGABIT ETHERNET AND SFP CONNECTIVITY

The hAP ac includes five Gigabit Ethernet ports for wired connections to computers, printers, smart devices, switches and other Ethernet-enabled equipment. Gigabit ports provide high-speed local connectivity and support internet connections where the upstream service and network equipment permit.

An SFP cage provides an additional connection option using a compatible SFP module. This can be useful when integrating the router into a network that uses fibre connectivity. Confirm module compatibility and the requirements of the connected equipment before deployment.

MIKROTIK ROUTEROS FEATURES

The MikroTik hAP ac runs RouterOS, giving network administrators flexibility to configure routing, firewall rules, DHCP services, wireless settings, VPN functions and bandwidth management according to the device’s supported features and software version.

This makes the router useful for small networks where administrators need more configuration control than a basic consumer Wi-Fi router typically offers. Secure administration is important: use strong credentials, current supported software and appropriate firewall and wireless security settings.

POWER OVER ETHERNET SUPPORT

The device supports PoE input on Ethernet port 1 and PoE output on Ethernet port 5 for compatible equipment. PoE output depends on the available input power, the connected device’s requirements and the router’s power limits. Check the official specifications before using the router to power another network device.

The hAP ac also includes a USB port for supported applications and accessories. Verify device compatibility and RouterOS support for the intended USB use.

APPLICATIONS FOR HOME, OFFICE AND ISP NETWORKS

The MikroTik hAP ac is suitable for a range of networking environments, including:

• Home internet access with dual-band Wi-Fi.
• Small offices that need both wireless and wired connectivity.
• Retail shops and small businesses connecting computers and point-of-sale equipment.
• Wireless networks with configurable routing and traffic-management requirements.
• Network installations that benefit from an SFP connection option.
• Small deployments using compatible PoE-powered network equipment.
