⚡ Quick Summary
Not all outdoor WiFi deployments are the same. Some require raw speed; others demand maximum coverage area from a single unit. If you're blanketing a large open space — a school sports field, a factory yard, a scenic park — the Chaneve AX1800-2 / AX3000-2 was built specifically for you.
The defining feature of the AX-2 series is its built-in 16dBi high-gain sector antenna with 120° wide-angle coverage, paired with independent power amplifiers for long-range, blind-spot-free signal. Add WiFi 6 speeds, IP65 weatherproofing, and 48V PoE, and you have one of the most capable outdoor extenders at this price point.
| Feature | AX1800-2 | AX3000-2 | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Max Speed | 1800 Mbps | 3000 Mbps | High-density / 4K |
| WiFi Standard | WiFi 6 (802.11ax) | All deployments | |
| Antenna | Built-in 16dBi Sector | Open outdoor areas | |
| Coverage Angle | 120° Wide-Angle | Fields, yards, parks | |
| Operating Modes | AP / Router / Repeater | Flexible topologies | |
| Concurrent Devices | 128+ | Schools, factories | |
| Weatherproof | IP65 | Permanent outdoor | |
| PoE | 48V · up to 60m | Easy single-cable install | |
| Price | $72 | $83 | — |
Driven by a dual-core processor and 802.11ax (WiFi 6), the AX1800-2 delivers 1800 Mbps and the AX3000-2 reaches 3000 Mbps across concurrent 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz bands. OFDMA and MU-MIMO ensure stable throughput even under heavy multi-device loads.
This is the AX-2 series' signature advantage. The integrated 16dBi high-gain sector antenna delivers a 120° horizontal coverage arc, ideal for open outdoor areas where a single AP needs to cover a wide fan-shaped zone. Independent power amplifiers (PA) further boost sensitivity and eliminate signal dead zones at range.
Unlike single-mode access points, the AX-2 series supports three operating modes with one-click configuration. Combined with Mesh roaming and VLAN networking, it adapts to virtually any network topology — from simple single-unit setups to large multi-AP campus deployments with centralized AC management.
The rugged IP65-rated enclosure is fully sealed against dust and resistant to water jets from any direction. Designed for permanent outdoor installation, it withstands rain, humidity, UV exposure, and corrosion — season after season, without performance degradation.
With 48V standard PoE and cable runs up to 60 meters, a single Ethernet cable handles both data and power. No electrician needed at the mounting point. Dual Gigabit Ethernet ports provide flexible uplink/downlink options for complex topologies.
High-density environments are no problem. Extra-large memory maintains stable connections for 128+ simultaneous devices — making it a reliable choice for schools, factories, and busy public venues.
Wide-angle coverage for sports fields, playgrounds, and open courtyards from a single unit.
Reliable connectivity for IoT devices, scanners, and mobile terminals across large floor areas.
Blanket open green spaces with guest WiFi using minimal infrastructure.
Seamless outdoor WiFi for pool areas, gardens, and open-air dining — no dead zones.
Scalable sector-coverage deployments with centralized AC management and VLAN segmentation.
Both models share the same antenna, weatherproofing, and feature set. The difference is throughput:
120° wide-angle · 16dBi high-gain · IP65 · 48V PoE · WiFi 6 · In Stock · Ships within 3 days
