Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why choose 6 GHz over 5 GHz?
The 6 GHz band offers a cleaner spectrum with less WiFi, radar, and DFS interference. This means more stable link performance over time, fewer unexpected signal drops caused by radar detection, and consistent throughput in interference-prone deployments.
Q: Is the 6 GHz range shorter than 5 GHz at the same antenna gain?
At the same TX power and antenna gain, 6 GHz FSPL is approximately 1.6 dB higher than 5 GHz. However, the YNW 6-20ax RF link budget is designed to match the 5 GHz model, achieving the same 10 km maximum range.
Q: Will current 5 GHz CPEs work with YNW 6-20ax as a base station?
No. The YNW 6-20ax operates exclusively in the 6 GHz band (5.9–7.125 GHz) and requires 6 GHz-capable CPEs to connect. It is not compatible with 5 GHz-only client devices.
Q: Does YNW 6-20ax support PoE OUT for powering surveillance cameras?
Yes. The second port provides 802.3af/at PoE output up to 13W, suitable for powering PTZ cameras or other PoE devices.
Q: Does YNW 6-20ax support OEM/white-label?
Yes. Complete OEM customization including brand logo, chassis color, web UI skinning, firmware pre-configuration, and branded packaging.
Q: What is the MOQ for OEM YNW 6-20ax?
Basic brand customization: MOQ 100 units. Deep firmware customization: MOQ 200 units. Full ODM: MOQ 1,000+ units.
