The AP3020/X is a universal indoor access point with a Wi-Fi 7 dual radio (2 2x2:2). It is designed for high-density environments such as schools, warehouses, healthcare facilities, and stadiums.
Note
The AP3020/X USB port has a locking mechanism that prevents devices plugged into the port from being dislodged.
The AP3020/X uses the 802.11 wireless standards (802.11a/b/g6 GHz./n/ac/ax/be) for network communications, and bridge network traffic to an Ethernet LAN. It can operate in either the cloud with ExtremeCloud IQ or in an on-premises environment with ExtremeCloud IQ Controller.
The AP3020 has internal antennas. The AP3020X has two fixed or integral antennas, as well as two antenna ports for additional antennas.
An integral antenna is a permanently fixed antenna that cannot be removed.
You can operate the APs in the following software modes:
Mode 1: 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz
Mode 2: 5 GHz and 6 GHz
Mode 3: Dual 5 GHz
Mode 4 (AP3020 only): 2.4 GHz and 6 GHz. The AP3020X does not support Standard Power (SP) in Mode 4.
For more information about available software modes, see Radios.
Important
Before you install your AP, read the deployment and onboarding information in ExtremeCloud IQ Controller Deployment Guide for on-premises deployments or the Extreme Platform ONE Networking User Guide for a Cloud deployment.
Extreme Networks devices, including access points, require firmware updates to ensure optimal performance and security. During deployment, upgrade your APs to the latest firmware.
