ArrowSpan has unveiled its latest Wi-Fi mesh product, the MeshAP 1180. The newest addition to ArrowSpan’s list of Wi-Fi mesh equipment provides greater signal strength to indoor deployments, using 200 mW (23 dBm) and transmits power with peak power of up to 1 W.

“The MeshAP 1180 is a long-range, high-power access point that will enable our customers to cover a larger area with fewer MeshAPs at a lower cost, and provide them with the best signal possible,” said Max Lu, president/CEO of ArrowSpan.

At 23 dBm, the MeshAP 1180 is an industrial strength access point, which can provide Wi-Fi access to a broad area with fewer units. With 23 dBm (200 mW) the MeshAP 1180 can boost node to node distance at a transmit rate of 54 Mbps downstream speed to 300 m (980 ft) in open space, greatly improving the download strength and throughput.

ArrowSpan’s dual radio design provides better Wi-Fi coverage, and can expand Internet hot spots to hot zones effortlessly by using Wi-Fi mesh technology with plug-n-play installation. The company’s unique technology has incorporated the software into every single MeshAP access point, therefore, eliminating the need for costly controllers or servers; and with the user-friendly mesh manager interface, it is now easier than ever to set up and manage a Wi-Fi network.

ArrowSpan’s MeshAP 1180 will be available in March.
