Meet the X7-53X and X7-55X: Wi Fi 7 Without Compromise

By Maurice Dini

The Wi-Fi landscape is evolving rapidly—with more devices, more bandwidth-hungry apps, and more pressure on IT teams to deliver high-performance networks with less complexity. Cambium Networks continues to raise the bar with two new Wi‑Fi 7 access points that combine future-ready performance, operational simplicity, and enterprise-grade reliability—without the bloated price tag.

Introducing the X7‑53X and X7‑55X: built for today’s mid-market enterprises and MSPs who need to scale, adapt, and deliver exceptional user experiences—across the property or across the portfolio.

Why Now? Because Wi-Fi Demands Are Surging

Modern networks are strained by hybrid work, smart devices, and emerging AI-powered apps. These new APs are designed to answer the critical questions facing IT and service providers:

  • Is your Wi-Fi ready for what’s next?
  • Can your network handle the explosion of connected devices?
  • Are you managing too many platforms just to stay online?

If any of these hit home, it’s time to rethink what enterprise Wi-Fi should be.

Designed for Performance, Built for What’s Next

The X7-53X and X7-55X deliver Wi‑Fi 7’s promise of multi-gig speeds and low latency, with cloud-managed simplicity via Cambium’s ONE Network.

  • Tri-radio, tri-band architecture (X7-55X) and dual-band plus IoT (X7-53X) options fit both high-density and cost-conscious deployments.
  • 4K-QAM, 320 MHz channels, and multi-link operation keep applications smooth, even in noisy RF environments.
  • Software-defined radios enable flexible upgrades to 6 GHz when your device population is ready—no rip-and-replace required.

Faster Installs, Smarter Operations

From zero-touch provisioning to simplified mounting and backwards-compatible PoE, the X7 series is engineered to reduce deployment time and accelerate ROI. These APs work seamlessly with your existing Wi-Fi 5/6 infrastructure and unify management under Cambium’s cloud-native cnMaestro™ platform.

  • Streamlined rollouts with MarketApps Installer and ONE Network templates
  • Seamless integration with switching, SD-WAN, and security
  • AI-powered assurance for continuous optimization without constant oversight

Choose the Right Fit

X7-53X

A cost-effective dual-band AP for mainstream enterprise and MSP deployments with built-in Zigbee/BLE IoT radio. Ideal for education, hospitality, and distributed sites.

X7-55X

A tri-band powerhouse with SDR flexibility, supporting either 5 or 6 GHz on the third radio—future-proofing your move to Wi-Fi 7 without overbuilding today.

One Network. Zero Compromise.

The X7-53X and X7-55X are more than just fast. They’re part of Cambium’s ONE Network, a unified platform that brings together Wi‑Fi, switching, security, SD-WAN, fixed wireless and fiber under a single cloud dashboard. That means:

  • One workflow from edge to core
  • MSP-ready multi-tenant views and SLA tracking
  • Lower TCO and fewer tickets through automation and analytics

Wi‑Fi 7 that Works for the Real World

Whether you’re modernizing a distributed network, rolling out a multi-site MSP deployment, or simply planning for the next wave of connected devices, Cambium’s X7 series delivers the performance, flexibility, and simplicity to keep you ahead—without breaking the budget.

Your next-gen network is ready when you are.
