Keenetic Stellar 6 Brings WiFi 6 to Outdoor Environments

The world is increasingly connected, and outdoor access points have often become a necessity, particularly in fields such as logistics or hospitality. For this reason, Keenetic has launched the new Stellar 6, an access point that can be used both indoors and outdoors, to provide WiFi connectivity everywhere.

Keenetic Stellar 6: The IP65 Certified Access Point

A distinctive feature of the Keenetic Stellar 6 is that it can be used in both external and internal environments because it is certified IP65 and hence resistant to dust and rain. It is designed to operate at temperatures ranging from -40 °C to +65 °C and can be powered via Power over Ethernet 802.3at, which significantly reduces installation complexity. It supports the WiFi 6 standard with an overall bandwidth of 3 Gbps (AX3000), features omnidirectional antennas, band steering, support for roaming 802.11k/r/v, and can be managed locally, remotely, or via the cloud.

The Keenetic Stellar 6 also supports segmentation via VLAN and differentiated SSIDs, allowing the creation of different networks based on user type (e.g., for staff and for customers of a restaurant).

The device uses the KeeneticOS operating system and can be managed through the company's cloud platform at no additional cost; this is an aspect that greatly simplifies the management of a fleet of devices within a company.

"The issue is not simply bringing Wi-Fi beyond the walls. Today, outdoor spaces can generate value only if they are designed as connected, secure, and continuous environments. With Stellar 6, Keenetic responds to this need," says Marco Bartolone, Country Manager of Keenetic Italy.

"A terrace can become a workspace; a dehor or a rooftop can enhance the guest experience; a parking lot or a square can host video surveillance, mobile terminals, sensors, and access control; a campus or a distributed facility can ensure network continuity even outside the main building. There are really many examples that can be made, but the fundamental point is that the network becomes what transforms a physical space into a truly usable space."
