This indoor wireless access point brings Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) to campus and branch floors with three separate radios running 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz and 6 GHz simultaneously, two spatial streams each. Channel width reaches 320 MHz on the 6 GHz radio and 160 MHz on 5 GHz, which is where the headline rates come from: 688 Mbps on 2.4 GHz, 2.882 Gbps on 5 GHz and 5.765 Gbps on 6 GHz. A single 100M/1G/2.5G/5G Multigigabit RJ45 port feeds both data and 802.3at PoE power, so the 320 MHz access point is deployed with one cable and no local PSU. The third radio keeps scanning all bands around the clock for rogue devices and interference while clients stay associated, and the integrated BLE/ZigBee plus GPS radios support iBeacon advertising and location services. Management runs through the WLAN controller built into any FortiGate appliance, through FortiEdge Cloud, or as a FortiSASE-managed endpoint.

Yes, on the 6 GHz radio, which supports 20/40/80/160/320 MHz widths and 4096 QAM for a maximum 5.765 Gbps PHY rate. Use of the 6 GHz band depends on regional regulatory approval, so confirm the channel plan for your country before rollout.
The unit draws 15.2 W maximum and runs from 802.3at PoE. Fortinet lists the GPI-130 injector for 1 Gbps links, the GPI-145 for 10 Gbps, or the SP-FAP200-PA 12 V 2.5 A adapter. Powered by 802.3af instead, the radio drops to 1x1 MIMO.
The single Multigigabit RJ45 port negotiates 100M, 1G, 2.5G or 5G. Running it at 5G keeps multi-gigabit wireless throughput from being throttled by a 1G copper uplink, and it carries PoE on the same cable.
It is managed by the WLAN controller built into any FortiGate appliance, by FortiEdge Cloud provisioning, or as a FortiSASE-managed endpoint. The Security Fabric console shows wired and wireless policy in one view.
Up to 24 SSIDs in total and up to 512 clients per radio across the three radios, with local-bridge, mesh and tunnel SSID modes to suit campus or branch topologies.
The access point is Wi-Fi Alliance certified with Wi-Fi 7 certification in progress, and it carries UL2043 plenum rating for above-ceiling installation plus built-in surge protection and hit-less PoE failover.
