Key Features
N-Type Connector + 6 GHz Clean Spectrum
Dual N-Type female connectors provide maximum antenna flexibility while the 6 GHz band offers significantly less WiFi and radar interference than 5 GHz. This combination is ideal for deployments demanding both flexibility and spectrum purity.
802.11ax 160 MHz Channel
WiFi 6 with OFDMA for multi-user efficiency. 160 MHz bonding delivers 1500+ Mbps aggregate throughput.
2.5G Uplink + PoE OUT
2.5 Gbps eliminates wired bottleneck. PoE OUT powers external devices. Single cable for both data and power.
Metal Shielded Enclosure
All-metal enclosure with passive cooling across -40°C to +65°C. Reduces RF coupling in co-location.
IP67 + Surge Protection
Corrosion-resistant IP67 housing with IEC 61000-4-5 surge protection for outdoor deployment.
2.4 GHz Management Radio
Built-in management radio for on-site configuration from within 20 meters using a mobile device.
Infinity Controller
Cloud management platform for bulk device discovery, auto-configuration, and remote firmware upgrades.
Ultra-Long Range Capable
With a 30 dBi dish antenna, can exceed 30 km PtP range. The 6 GHz band’s lower interference provides cleaner signal at extreme distances.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the hardware the same between YNW 6ax and YNW 5ax aside from the frequency band?
The core processor platform is the same, but the RF front-end differs — the 6ax uses power amplifiers, filters, and matching circuits designed for the 6 GHz band. The N-Type connectors, Ethernet ports, PoE specs, IP rating, and chassis design are identical.
Q: What is the maximum PtP range with a 30 dBi dish antenna on 6 GHz?
Under line-of-sight conditions with a 30 dBi parabolic dish and 20 MHz channel width, theoretical PtP range can exceed 30 km. In practice, atmospheric attenuation, Fresnel zone clearance, and antenna alignment precision must be considered. At least 15 dB fade margin is recommended.
Q: Can I use existing 5 GHz antennas with YNW 6ax?
Standard N-Type connectors are compatible, but ensure the external antenna’s frequency range covers 5.9–7.125 GHz. Some antennas labeled for 5 GHz may have inadequate VSWR and gain at 6 GHz frequencies.
Q: What network features does YNW 6ax support?
Supports Bridge/Router IPv4/IPv6 modes, NAT, static routing, port forwarding, DMZ; up to 8 SSIDs per radio; 802.1q VLAN with Q-in-Q; SNMP v1/v2c/v3, Syslog, WebUI, and Infinity Controller management.
Q: Does YNW 6ax support OEM/white-label customization?
Yes. Complete OEM customization including brand logo and product label, chassis color, web UI skinning, firmware pre-configuration, and branded packaging. All Zukaka branding can be removed for a pure white-label experience.
Q: What is the MOQ for OEM YNW 6ax?
Basic brand customization: MOQ 100 units. Deep firmware customization: MOQ 200 units. Full ODM: MOQ 1,000+ units. Chassis color: MOQ 500+ units. Volume pricing scales with quantity.
