Westermo Ibex-1310 - Industrial Outdoor WiFi 6 Access Point
802.11ax Dual-Band, 2x2 MIMO, IP66, AP/CPE, DC + PoE
Version: Ibex-1310-T2G2.5 EU
The Ibex-1310 delivers industrial-grade WiFi 6 connectivity for outdoor installations and mobile applications where reliability cannot be compromised. This dual-band concurrent access point combines 802.11ax efficiency with environmental protection designed for substations, trackside installations, and industrial vehicle networks.
Built for deployment in demanding electromagnetic environments and extreme temperatures, the Ibex-1310 provides secure wireless connectivity where standard commercial access points fail. Full galvanic isolation protects network infrastructure from voltage spikes and surge events, while IP66-rated enclosure and GORE-TEX membrane enable year-round outdoor operation across Nordic climate conditions.
