Superior Range and Performance

Our proprietary antenna design provides superior range and performance. The AP6-Pro Outdoor features four 5 GHz antennas, a design that helps the AP6-Pro Outdoor outperform 2x2 APs by an over 30% throughput increase in many cases. Seamless roaming is fully automatic with support for the 802.11 k, v, and r standards. The AP6-Pro Outdoor utilizes intelligent mesh formation for maximum throughput.

Omnidirectional + Mesh Connectivity

The AP6-Pro Outdoor features an omnidirectional antenna, allowing WiFi connectivity in all directions. By incorporating Mesh technology, the AP6-Pro Outdoor can be used to extend your WiFi network to areas that may be difficult or unreachable with wired Ethernet.

AltaPass™ Multi-Password Technology

AltaPass is a unique Alta Labs feature that allows clients to connect to the same wireless network SSID using different passwords. Clients are provided with different network and internet access levels based on the password they use to connect to the network.

When a password is created, select from one of the predefined standard use cases. The password can then also be associated with a specific upload or download rate, a VLAN, or set to bypass the filtering rules, the hotspot functionality, or to ignore the schedule.

• Standard/Small Typical network with less than 100 WiFi clients/devices.
• Large Optimized for hundreds to thousands of WiFi clients/devices.
• IoT Restricted to Internet and local incoming connections only.
• Internet only Restricted to Internet only.
• Guest Restricted to Internet and IoT devices.

Scalable Alta Management Platform

Alta Labs provides an intuitive and easy-to-use management interface for Alta Labs access points and switches. Deploy and manage multiple sites quickly and easily. Add, delete, or rename sites instantly. Toggle between sites from a site selection drop-down. Each site contains its own data set.

The Alta cloud-based platform is designed for optimum scalability using a high-availability architecture for the ultimate in convenience and worldwide accessibility. Built on a worldwide content delivery network to optimize response and latency, our global cloud infrastructure ensures geographically optimized connectivity through our redundant network.

Alta Networks Mobile App

Monitor and manage your networks from the convenience of your mobile device using the Alta Networks app. Sign up for an Alta Labs account using just your name, email, and password or sign in using your Google or Apple account. The Alta Networks app is available in the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store. Scan the QR code below to download the app.

Listening to customer feedback, Alta Labs prioritized a self-hosted, on-premise software controller solution that is available now. Docker and LXD images are available for download. The interface is identical to our cloud software with an intuitive and easy-to-use interface. In the very near future, a hardware version of the local controller will be available.

Hotspot Functionality

Built-in functionality to create your own local hotspot with a logo, title page, terms of service, and a final landing page. You also have the option to redirect to an external URL.

Wireless Network Color Coding

Patent pending functionality that allows you to assign groups to wireless SSIDs and then assign membership to wireless access points.

Continuous SSID Broadcasting

In addition to standard functionality such as hiding your SSID, you can continue broadcasting your SSID during a “scheduled off” event. This provides network admins with the ability to grant users additional time on the network. A user can request access via a captive portal displayed when they try to access the network.

Customizable Dashboard

Customize your dashboard with the information you want to see: IP address, Load, number of devices, MAC address, firmware version, wireless network color assignment, and real-time status details. Details are sortable by column.

On-The-Fly Changes and Scanning

• Configuration changes do not require a reboot of your network. Changes can be made without taking your network down.
• Scan your AP environment without disrupting your WiFi network

Status Snapshots

View upload and download throughput with a visual timeline on the dashboard for each AP displayed along with the number of connected devices, average processor load, channel load, and average connected devices. Select a snapshot of the last minute, last hour, last two days, or last two months.

Mounting Flexibility

The AP6-Pro Outdoor has a pole mount built-in and also includes a wall mount accessory.
