Huawei AC650 1218AP Wireless Access Point

Large-capacity and high-performance design
Manages up to 128 APs, meeting requirements of SOHO campuses.
Provides 2 x 10GE optical interfaces and 10 x GE electrical interfaces, supporting up to 10 Gbps forwarding performance.
SmartRadio for AP air interface optimization
Load balancing during smart roaming: The load balancing algorithm enables load balancing detection between APs on the
network after STA roaming to adjust the STA load on each AP, improving network stability.
Intelligent dynamic frequency assignment (DFA) technology: The DFA algorithm is used to automatically detect adjacentchannel and co-channel interference, and identify any redundant 2.4 GHz radios. Through automatic inter-AP negotiation, a
redundant radio is automatically switched to another mode (dual-5G AP models support 2.4G-to-5G switchover) or is disabled to
reduce 2.4 GHz co-channel interference and increase the system capacity.
Intelligent conflict optimization technology: Dynamic enhanced distributed channel access (EDCA) and airtime scheduling
algorithms are used to schedule the channel occupation time and service priority of each user. This ensures that each user is
assigned a relatively equal amount of time for using channel resources and user services are scheduled in an orderly manner,
improving service processing efficiency and user experience.
Various roles
The WAC has a built-in Portal/AAA server and can provide Portal/802.1X authentication for users, protecting customer
investment.
Flexible networking
The WAC can be deployed in in-path, off-path, bridge, or mesh network mode, and supports both centralized and local
forwarding modes.
The WAC and APs can be connected across a Layer 2 or Layer 3 network. In addition, network address translation (NAT)
can be deployed when APs are deployed on the private network and the WAC is deployed on the public network.
The WAC is compatible with Huawei's 802.11n, 802.11ac and 802.11ax APs and supports the hybrid networking of
802.11n, 802.11ac and 802.11ax APs for simple scalability.
Built-in application identification server
Supports Layer 4 to Layer 7 application identification and can identify over 6000 applications, including common office
applications and P2P download applications, such as Lync, FaceTime, YouTube, and Facebook.
Supports application-based policy control technologies, including traffic blocking, traffic limiting, and priority adjustment
policies.
Supports automatic application expansion in the application signature database, without the need of a software upgrade.
Comprehensive reliability design
Supports WAC 1+1 HSB and N+1 backup, ensuring uninterrupted services.
Supports port backup based on the Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) or Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP).
Supports WAN authentication escape between APs and WACs. In local forwarding mode, this feature keeps existing STAs
online and allows for the access of new STAs when APs are disconnected from WACs, ensuring service continuity.
Built-in visualized network management platform
The AC650-128AP has a built-in web system that is easy to configure and provides comprehensive monitoring and
intelligent diagnosis.
Health-centric one-page monitoring, visualized KPIs
One page integrates the summary and real-time statistics. KPIs are displayed on graphs, including user, radio and AP
performance, enabling users to extract useful information from the massive amount of data, while also being instantly aware of
the device and network status.
