Cambium NetworkscnPilot e700 Enterprise Outdoor 802.11ac Wave 2 Gigabit Mesh Wall-Mount AP | PL-E700X00A-US

Right up front, I am a network engineer for a wireless broadband provider, so take that into account as you read my comments.I have an e410 AP in the wall between my kitchen, diningroom, and livingroom. I have an e430w on the wall at the end of the hallway between bedrooms. And I have an e700 outside behind the carport. (this review will be copied/pasted for all three devices) I did NOT purchase them from Amazon, I received them directly from Cambium over the past few years. (We use Cambium brand equipment for our wireless broadband network, they were sent to me as a "thank you" for active & helpful web forum participation)The e430w is surprisingly capable and flexible, allowing a wide variety of hookups, including running the AP via POE (PowerOverEthernet) and then re-feeding POE out on another port. (to power a camera, as I do from my e700, or a VOIP desk phone, as I do from my e430w) There's actually four gigabit ports on the e430w, the ether1 port (POE input to power the AP) is on the back, so in an ordinary installation it would be inside the wall box. So too is a 'passthrough' port that is directly wired to another 'passthrough' port on the bottom of the unit beside the 3 'external' gigabit ports. this port is handy if you need to power it via POE but locally, or if you have an older phone system jack in the wall that you want to replace with the e430w while providing passthrough for the existing phone.The e700 is outside, close to the middle of my 3 acre property, and provides me workable wifi throughout the back 2/3 of the property and along the driveway. (other parts of the front are blocked by the house itself) There are surely places where coverage is spotty, but I have about 2 acres of woods back there...The e410 in my kitchen is, by comparison, mundane. It works reliably, there's typically 8-15 devices connected to it.These APs are intended to be centrally controlled, either by the cloud-hosted (and free) cnMaestro service (cloud.cambiumnetworks.com) or by a local cnmaestro-on-premises, but (unlike, for example, Ubiquiti wifi) you CAN configure these radios manually directly logged into them via web browser. You can also (NOT tried this, myself) designate one of multiple APs sharing a local network as the controller, and any settings you change there (like WPA encryption key, for example) will propogate to the other APs.In short, if you know what you're doing, all three of these APs are outstanding products, and well supported. If you DON'T know what you're doing, you might puzzle through it (again, unlike Ubiquiti these can be configured by had) but I'd suggest enlisting the assistance of someone with some wireless networking experience. In any case, these guys are solid performers, well worth the price if you need to support more devices, more complex setups, etc. (I have 4 SSIDs active on mine sometimes, locked into isolated independant VLANs, one forced through a click-through-portal since it's unsecured)j
