Curation Review

  • ✔ Pros: Tri-band Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) with 4x4:4 on both 5 GHz and 6 GHz for high-capacity client service; Dedicated scanning radio supports continuous RF monitoring and security/AIOps; Virtual BLE array and GNSS support for location-based services; Managed through the Juniper Mist cloud with AI-driven operations; Two PoE-capable Ethernet ports and an integrated IoT radio and USB port add flexibility
  • ✘ Cons: Full functionality requires 802.3bt (29.3 W); 802.3at power forces reduced functionality; Maximum client count and Ethernet port speed are not published, so multi-gig uplink cannot be confirmed; Internal antennas only and rated for indoor deployment only; Advertised pricing bundles a Mist subscription term, so hardware-only cost is not clearly separated; 2.4 GHz radio is limited to 2x2:2
  • Est. Price: $2,077 - $3,525
