Overview

FortiAP 234G

IP67 outdoor Wi-Fi 6E with internal antennas and GPS - rated -40 to 60 C and ships with its injector.

Outdoor Coverage With Nothing to Mount Separately

The 234G is the outdoor access point for a car park, a courtyard, a campus walkway or a loading yard: IP67 sealed, rated from -40 C to 60 C, with ten internal antennas so there is nothing to fit, aim or have stolen. It ships with the 60 W PoE injector and the pole and wall brackets, which in practice is the difference between a one-visit install and a two-visit one.

Managed From the Firewall, Not a Controller

A FortiAP has no separate controller to buy, licence or patch. It is managed from a FortiGate, from FortiEdge Cloud or through FortiSASE, which means the wireless policy and the security policy are configured in the same place and the access point is part of the Security Fabric rather than a device bolted on beside it. For a site that already runs a FortiGate, adding wireless is adding an access point and nothing else.
