Fast Installation
The X7-55X Wi-Fi 7 AP streamlines installation, saving you time and money. Its multi-functional mounting system easily installs the access point over multiple telecom and electrical junction boxes, on a suspended drop ceiling system, or to any flat surface. The recessed Ethernet port and trim mounting bracket enables an aesthetically pleasing installation and final finish. Plus, the new Wi-Fi 7 junction box bracket is backwards compatible with the XV3-8 and XE3-4.
