LANCOM LW-700 introduces high-speed Wi-Fi 7 indoor access point
The LANCOM LW-700 extends LANCOM Systems portfolio with a state-of-the-art indoor access point leveraging Wi-Fi 7 (IEEE 802.11be). Operating concurrently on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, it delivers combined throughput reaching 3.6 Gbit/s. Utilizing true 2Ã2 MU-MIMO technology, it simultaneously channels all available spatial streams to multiple clients, guaranteeing optimal performance. Its compact design and robust feature set make it an ideal connectivity solution tailored for small to mid-sized enterprise networks.
Power Over Ethernet Enables Installation Without Power Outlets Efficiently
Power is supplied via Power over Ethernet (PoE), enabling installation without dedicated power outlets. As an alternative, an optional external power adapter can be deployed where PoE is unavailable. The included mounting bracket is designed to align with the drill hole patterns used by the LW-600 and LW-500 models, allowing direct swaps. This streamlined process saves IT teams time, minimizes equipment downtime, and reduces operational risks during network maintenance tasks.
LW-700 Operates Standalone via WEBconfig or Cloud Managed LMC
The LW-700 can be configured locally via its intuitive WEBconfig web interface or centrally managed through the LANCOM Management Cloud (LMC) for automated provisioning. Its Zero-Touch Deployment capability using SDN protocols streamlines rollouts without manual intervention. Additionally, administrators can integrate the unit into existing infrastructures via a hardware WLAN controller or employ a virtual LANCOM vRouter-Controller. This versatile approach supports both stand-alone operation and hybrid network architectures with minimal complexity.
LMCs Active Power Control Dynamically Regulates Access Point Energy
The LANCOM Management Cloud uses Active Power Control to dynamically adjust the access points power consumption according to network demands. When idle periods occur, Sustainability Mode throttles radio functions to lower energy usage without compromising connectivity readiness. A centralized energy monitoring dashboard aggregates consumption metrics, giving administrators clear visibility into power trends. These insights enable data-driven sustainability policies and operational efficiency improvements in corporate campuses, educational institutions, and green initiatives.
LANCOM Active Radio Control 2.0 Automatically Optimizes Wireless Environment
LANCOM Active Radio Control 2.0 continuously scans and analyzes wireless environments in time across all frequencies, access points, and devices. The automated system dynamically optimizes channel allocation, channel width, and transmit power to ensure performance under heavy loads and external interference. It leverages intelligent prioritization based on actual usage patterns to allocate capacity where its needed most. This reduces manual configuration tasks and significantly lightens the workload of IT administrators.
LW-700 Secures Networks with WPA3, WPA2 and Backdoor-Free Configuration
The LW-700 secures networks through WPA3-Personal and WPA3-Enterprise authentication using IEEE 802.1X, supplemented by WPA2 support and a convenient QR code onboarding process to simplify device registration. Certified under “IT Security made in Germany”, LANCOM guarantees a backdoor-free architecture, prioritizing privacy. Combined with advanced firewall protection, reliable switches, and the Germany-hosted LANCOM Management Cloud, the solution ensures robust seamless always-on GDPR-compliant complete data security for critical enterprise and institutional environments.
Three-Year Warranty Plus Extended Updates Ensures LW-700 Lifetime Support
LANCOM guarantees the LW-700 Access Point with a comprehensive three-year warranty, which can be extended to five years upon request. During the entire product lifecycle plus an additional two-year period, customers receive free software updates, including major releases, minor releases, and bugfix patches. The support package also features extensive self-service options, access to online documentation and resources, remote configuration capabilities, and responsive, around-the-clock personal support for secure, seamless network management.
LANCOM LW-700 boosts Wi-Fi 7 performance, security, efficiency, management
The LANCOM LW-700 integrates cutting-edge Wi-Fi 7 throughput with versatile administration capabilities via cloud, controller, or local interfaces, delivering combined data rates up to 3.6 Gbps and simultaneous MU-MIMO transmission across dual-band connections. Equipped for Power over Ethernet mounting and optional standalone supply, it simplifies deployment. Energy-aware modes and dynamic power control optimize consumption, while robust WPA3 encryption and firmware updates safeguard networks, reducing total cost of ownership and ensuring long-term ROI.
