Security & Authentication

1. WPA3 and WPA2 Enterprise
   The AirEngine 6776 series supports the latest WPA3 encryption for enhanced security. This includes Simultaneous Authentication of Equals (SAE) and GCMP-256 encryption, which help protect against brute-force and replay attacks.
2. 802.1X / RADIUS Authentication
   The APs provide 802.1X authentication for secure access, integrated with RADIUS servers for centralized user management and policy enforcement.
3. Guest Network Isolation
   Using VLANs and guest portals, the 6776 series can create separate networks for employees and visitors, ensuring that internal resources are protected from unauthorized access.
4. WIPS (Wireless Intrusion Prevention System)
   The 6776 APs continuously scan the wireless spectrum to identify rogue access points or unauthorized devices. If detected, the system can automatically mitigate threats and ensure the security of your network.
5. Secure Management
   The 6776 series uses SSH, HTTPS, and SNMPv3 for encrypted management, ensuring that only authorized users can access the device's configuration and monitoring data.

Setup and Management

Installation & Mounting

1. Ceiling and Wall Mounting
   The Huawei AirEngine 6776 models are designed for ceiling and wall installations, making them ideal for enterprise, educational, and public venues. The compact and lightweight design ensures that these APs blend seamlessly with their environment.
2. PoE+ Power
   The 6776 series supports PoE 802.3bt/at, meaning they can be powered through the Ethernet cable, simplifying installation and eliminating the need for additional power outlets.
3. Weatherproof and Durable
   The 6776-X6H and 6776-58TI models come with IP65 weatherproofing, allowing them to be deployed in areas with harsh environments, such as covered outdoor spaces and industrial settings.

RF Planning & Antenna

1. Auto Channel & Power Control
   The 6776 series supports DFS (Dynamic Frequency Selection) and TPC (Transmit Power Control) to automatically adapt to changes in the environment, ensuring optimal performance without interference from neighboring networks.
2. Beamforming and MU-MIMO
   Beamforming ensures that the AP focuses the signal towards connected clients, while MU-MIMO allows the AP to serve multiple clients at the same time, improving overall network efficiency.
3. Advanced Airtime Fairness
   Airtime fairness ensures that no device is left behind, even in high-density environments where older or slower devices might otherwise experience performance degradation.
4. Heat Map Simulation
   Using Huawei's cloud-based management tools, you can simulate the APs' coverage area and optimize placement before deployment, reducing setup time and ensuring maximum coverage.

Monitoring

1. Huawei Cloud & AC Controller
   The 6776 series supports both cloud-based management through Huawei’s centralized platform and on-premises controllers for localized control. This flexibility ensures the APs are easily manageable across diverse IT architectures.
2. Zero-Touch Provisioning
   The zero-touch provisioning feature allows for easy deployment. The APs automatically configure themselves once connected to the network, saving valuable time during setup.
3. Performance Monitoring
   Real-time analytics and performance dashboards help IT staff monitor the network's health, track client connections, and optimize bandwidth allocation to avoid congestion.
