MikroTik hAP ax S — Professional Wi-Fi 6 Access Point for SOHO & SMB

MikroTik hAP ax S is a dual-band WiFi 6 access point for homes and small offices, designed to deliver gigabit-class wireless performance at an accessible price without compromises in functionality or network control. It is deployed in households with many connected devices, small offices, and complex network configurations where RouterOS flexibility and long-term investment protection are as important as wireless speed. It combines dual-band WiFi 6 with triple-chain 5 GHz, an SFP 2.5G port, 5 Gigabit Ethernet ports, and full RouterOS v7 — with no subscriptions or locked features.

The 5 GHz band with triple-chain architecture delivers real-world speeds of 800–900 Mbps, ensuring smooth streaming, fast downloads, and stable performance across multiple simultaneous devices even in congested environments. The SFP port with 2.5 Gigabit allows direct fibre connection or linking a NAS server for local high-speed access without bottlenecks. The dual-core ARM processor with 512 MB RAM efficiently handles simultaneous traffic, while 5 Gigabit Ethernet ports cover the wired connectivity of the entire local network. The compact 122×87×26 mm dimensions allow flexible installation — vertical, horizontal, or wall-mounted.

hAP ax S runs full RouterOS v7, providing VLANs, advanced firewall, VPN tunnels, traffic shaping, scripting, and SMS automation — functionality identical to MikroTik enterprise equipment, with no recurring costs. Two power options — DC jack or PoE-in — plus passive PoE-out allow powering an additional AP or compact switch directly from the device. Isolating IoT devices into separate subnets protects the home network from low-security equipment, and support for complex topologies makes it suitable for small offices with advanced networking requirements.

Recommended for homes with many connected devices requiring stable WiFi 6 and advanced network control, small offices needing RouterOS flexibility without enterprise equipment costs, and users connecting fibre directly or a high-speed NAS via the SFP 2.5G port. Also suited for gamers and VR headset users requiring low latency and real gigabit speeds without cables, and for any configuration where full network control without subscriptions is a priority.
