The MikroTik cAP ax (Model: cAPGi-5HaxD2HaxD) is an enterprise-grade dual-band Wi-Fi 6 ceiling access point engineered to handle congested wireless environments, heavy multi-device loads, and demanding indoor coverage areas. Featuring an updated low-profile, sleek white chassis with interchangeable mounting plates, it integrates seamlessly into corporate office ceilings, hotels, shopping centers, and modern residential spaces.
Driven by a high-performance quad-core IPQ-6010 ARM 64-bit CPU operating at 1.8 GHz, paired with 1 GB RAM and 128 MB NAND storage, the cAP ax provides up to 40% higher speed in the 5 GHz spectrum and up to 90% higher speed in the 2.4 GHz spectrum compared to previous-generation cAP models. Its dual-chain Wi-Fi 6 radios support 802.11ax features, including ODFMA, MU-MIMO, and modern WPA3 security encryption, optimizing airtime efficiency across hundreds of connected client devices.
For wired networking, the device includes two Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 ports: Port 1 accepts standard 802.3af/at or Passive PoE-in (18–57 V DC), while Port 2 provides Passive PoE-out to supply power to downstream network hardware like IP cameras or adjacent access points. Managed centrally via MikroTik's CAPsMAN controller or operating as a standalone RouterOS Level 4 device, the cAP ax delivers robust enterprise security, seamless roaming, and advanced VLAN traffic management.
