Tired of dead zones and tangled cables in each room? The Zyxel WAC500H turns a simple wall outlet into a powerful Wi-Fi hub, wired switch and PoE power source-all in one sleek unit. You get reliable coverage and clean connections without extra adapters.
Zyxel WAC500H 1200Mbps Dual Band In Wall PoE WiFi Access Point
The WAC500H delivers up to 1200Mbps across 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, using 802.11ac Wave 2 and MU-MIMO technology for smooth video calls, streaming and file transfers. Two Gigabit Ethernet ports let you plug in a printer, VoIP phone or POS terminal while the built-in PoE powers the device directly from the wall.
NebulaFlex Pro gives you three management options: a local web UI, an on-premises controller, or the Nebula cloud with a free one-year license. Whether you run a small office or a multi-room home, you can scale the network, apply VLANs, enable fast roaming and enforce security policies from a single dashboard.
The low-profile design fits neatly into any décor. Mount it directly on an outlet box, hide it behind a desk or place it on a shelf - the white housing blends in while the internal 4dBi antenna provides strong, “RF First” signal strength. With band steering, wireless isolation and advanced Wi-Fi Multimedia support, your devices stay on the optimal band without manual tweaking.
Benefits
You get a tidy, all-in-one solution that eliminates the need for separate routers, switches and PoE injectors. The Zyxel access point keeps your network fast, secure and easy to manage, reducing downtime for remote work, online learning or customer-facing POS systems. Its dual-band performance and MU-MIMO ensure multiple devices stay connected at full speed.
