OVERVIEW
The GWN7624 is an in-wall Wi-Fi access point designed for small-tomedium-sized businesses, offices, residential, commercial locations, hotels, and more. It provides three Gigabit network ports to provide IP phones, IPTV, computers, and similar devices with Ethernet while also providing an uplink Gigabit network port with PoE/PoE+. The GWN7624 offers 4×4:4 MU-MIMO technology and a sophisticated antenna design for maximum network throughput and expanded Wi-Fi coverage range. To ensure easy installation and management, the GWN7624 uses a controller-less distributed network management design in which the controller is embedded within the product’s web user interface. The GWN7624 is also supported by GWN. Cloud and GWN Manager, Grandstream’s free cloud and on- premise Wi-Fi management platform. It is the ideal Wi-Fi AP for voice-over-Wi- Fi deployments and offers a seamless connection with Grandstream’s Wi-Fi- capable IP phones. With support for advanced QoS, low-latency real-time applications, mesh networks, captive portals, and 200 concurrent clients per AP, the GWN7624 is an ideal Wi-Fi access point for medium wireless network deployments with medium user density.
