MikroTik RouterBoard RBcAP2nD 2.4GHz 2dBi Dual Chain Ceiling Access Point
The MikroTik RouterBoard RBcAP2nD is a ceiling access point with a 2.4GHz dual-chain design. It is discreetly designed to seamlessly blend into any environment, making it ideal for businesses in the hospitality industry, such as hotels and airports. This AP supports 802.11b/g/n and can be powered by PoE. It is also compatible with the MikroTik CAPsMAN, allowing you to easily manage all your AP devices from a central location. Unlike traditional controller software that requires a separate PC or Mac, CAPsMAN can run on any existing RouterBoard device in your network.
