LANCOM Data sheet - Wireless LAN

Faster data transfer

With Wi-Fi 7, you benefit from a speed boost of up to 240% compared to Wi-Fi 6 in real-world applications. This is made possible by a doubling of the available frequency spectrum for Wi-Fi through additional 6 GHz frequencies, a doubled maximum channel width (320 MHz instead of the previous 160 MHz), and an increased data density during transmissions (4096 QAM instead of 1024 QAM in Wi-Fi 6). As a result, the LANCOM LX-7200 delivers a maximum aggregated data rate of 9.6 Gbps across all frequency bands.

More stable transmission quality

Multi-link operation (MLO) automatically uses the frequency band with better quality or even uses two frequency bands simultaneously. In addition, Multi-RU and Puncturing effectively mitigates the previously serious consequences of interference signals. This ensures significantly more reliable transmission and reception quality, especially in radio environments with high signal density.

Housing design optimized for field use

The design of the LANCOM LX-7200 is based on decades of market experience and valuable user feedback. Its flattened side contours give it a discreet appearance, allowing it to blend seamlessly into any environment. With IP50 protection rating, including rubber-sealed ports, the access point is dustproof. Additionally, it features certified fire resistance and low-smoke emissions in case of fire (UL 2043). The compact mounting bracket with a security lock not only helps prevent opportunistic theft but is also compatible with standard mounting hole patterns from various manufacturers. Optionally, the LANCOM LX-7000 series offers a specially designed mounting system for ergonomic and time-saving installation on T-bars of suspended ceilings.

Interference-free use of the 6 GHz frequency band for modern and future applications

Take a seat in the VIP lounge in the Wi-Fi: The LANCOM LX-7200 offers an exclusive Wi-Fi radio field free of interference in the 6 GHz frequency band. While the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands can be used by other wireless technologies such as alarm systems or audio applications, the broadband 6 GHz spectrum is intended for exclusive Wi-Fi use. This enables interference-free Wi-Fi connections with minimal latency and maximum data throughput. Fast-response connections and time-critical Wi-Fi applications in particular benefit from this.

Professional IoT support

With the LANCOM LX-7200, you can easily immerse yourself in the world of the Internet of Things (IoT). Support for BLE 5.4 and USB 2.0 opens up many possibilities for you to communicate with modern BLE sensors in devices or objects and to use innovative applications such as asset tracking or digital signage. In addition, the LANCOM LX-7200 is already prepared for ESL via BLE 5.4 – a future-proof solution for the long-term planning of your digital signage projects.

Reduced overall energy consumption thanks to LANCOM Active Power Control

In light of rising energy costs and the growing societal demand for sustainable solutions, LANCOM Active Power Control provides the ideal answer for your network infrastructure. This intelligent, cloud-based optimization solution dynamically adjusts the available Wi-Fi capacity, reducing the energy consumption of your Wi-Fi infrastructure without compromising operational reliability. In "Sustainability Mode," the functions of the access points are minimized during idle phases, leading to a lower PoE power requirement. A centralized energy monitoring system provides full transparency of your energy consumption.

Antenna Gain

The document displays polar plots illustrating antenna gain patterns for various frequency bands. For each band (2.4 GHz, 5.2 GHz, 5.6 GHz, 6 GHz, and BLE), three distinct plots are presented, showcasing the directional characteristics of the antenna. These plots depict gain values typically ranging from -30 dBi to approximately +10 dBi, with a prominent main lobe indicating the primary transmission and reception direction, and various side lobes representing secondary radiation patterns.

Physical Description

The LANCOM LX-7200 is a square-shaped access point. The top view shows mounting points, ventilation grilles, and labels indicating ports such as LANCOM, CE, ETH2, DC 12V, and RST. The bottom view reveals the physical ports: two Ethernet ports (one supporting PoE+), a USB 2.0 host port, and a DC power input. It also features status LEDs and a reset button.
