SAN JOSE, Calif., July 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Extreme Networks, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXTR), a cloud-driven networking company, today announced a new enterprise-grade Wi-Fi 6E access point: the Extreme AP4000 universal wireless platform, capable of operating in the 6 GHz frequency spectrum.

About the Universal Wireless AP4000
-- Wi-Fi 6E/6 GHz offers three times the available unlicensed spectrum and
is currently available in the US and 40 countries. The AP4000 uses the 6
GHz spectrum to deliver high performance in a clean environment with low
interference.
-- The AP4000 leverages advanced security and ML/AI capabilities to meet
new demands and challenges on Wi-Fi infrastructure, brought on by new
devices, applications, and users. Coupled with the ExtremeCloud(TM) IQ
network management platform, it allows for simplified deployment,
management, and highly secure Wi-Fi in high-density environments.
-- With three 2x2:2 radios, the AP4000 provides high-efficiency,
high-performance 802.11ax aggregate data rates up to 3.9 Gbps and
operates simultaneously across the 6 GHz, 5 GHz, and 2.4 GHz bands.
-- Architected with the Broadcom FBAR tri-band filter, the AP4000 enables
superior tri-band radio performance across 5 GHz and 6 GHz spectrum
without the need for a software or hardware upgrade.
-- Additionally, the AP4000 offers the smallest form factor
enterprise-grade Wi-Fi 6E access point (8" x 8" x 1.5") for aesthetic
and flexible placement. It fits easily into Extreme mounting brackets
when replacing previous generation access points.
