Access Point Cudy AC1300 AP1300 Dual-Band 2.4/5 GHz, MU-MIMO, PoE, Ceiling/Wall Mount

The device supports MU‑MIMO and beamforming to improve performance when multiple clients are active and to extend reliable signal toward connected devices. It is mesh‑ready (802.11k/v) for seamless roaming between access points and supports multiple operating modes — Access Point, Router, Range Extender and WISP — to fit different network topologies. The unit also includes business‑class features such as captive portal, band steering, auto channel optimization and self‑organizing mesh, and offers flexible powering and mounting options including 802.3at/af PoE, 24–57 V passive PoE and a DC adapter supplied in the box.

Advantages

MU‑MIMO enables simultaneous data streams to multiple devices, increasing throughput under heavy usage. Beamforming directs wireless signal toward clients to improve coverage and connection stability. Mesh support (802.11k/v) allows client devices to switch between access points without interrupting calls or streams. Multiple operation modes and business features provide flexibility for home and commercial deployments. Multiple power options and included mounting kits simplify installation in different environments.

Key specifications

• MU‑MIMO technology for simultaneous multi‑device transmission

How to use

Choose the operating mode that matches your network needs: select Access Point to create a Wi‑Fi spot behind an existing router, Router mode when PPPoE authorization or a separate subnet is required, Range Extender to expand an existing wireless network into hard‑to‑cover areas, or WISP to extend Wi‑Fi while keeping connected clients on a dedicated subnet. Configure wireless settings and business features (captive portal, band steering, auto channel optimization) via the device management interface. Use PoE or the supplied DC adapter to power the unit and follow the included mounting instructions to install the device in the desired location.

Recommendations

For best results place the device where it has line‑of‑sight to most client devices and, if used in mesh mode, to other access points. Use PoE when power outlets are not available and enable band steering and auto channel optimization to improve overall network performance.
