Specifications

AP6 840E at a Glance

Wi-Fi 6/6E Performance

Tri-radio operation across the 2.4, 5, and less-congested 6 GHz band (where available), with 4x4:4 MIMO for maximum throughput in high-density spaces. WPA3 security is built in, and DFS is supported.

Wiring & Power

Two 2.5GbE interfaces keep the LAN from becoming the bottleneck. The 840E is the only AP6 model that needs 802.3bt PoE++ (up to 45W) to run all three radios at once. Power it with the Sophos CS210-8FP or CS1010-8FP switch, or the Sophos PoE++ 60W injector.

Deployment

Built for indoor use with desktop, wall, or ceiling mounting. Plenum-rated (UL2043), so it's approved for the air-handling space above drop ceilings. Measures 8.86 x 8.86 x 1.54 in and weighs 1.2 kg.

Management & Warranty

Managed entirely in Sophos Central, with a local web interface available for a single AP. Backed by a limited lifetime hardware warranty; an active support subscription adds Central management, firmware updates, Advanced RMA, and 24/7 support.

AP6 840E FAQ

Does the AP6 840E come with a power adapter or PoE injector?

No. The 840E ships as the access point only. It needs 802.3bt PoE++ to power all three radios, which is more than a standard PoE+ port delivers. Power it with a Sophos PoE++ switch like the CS210-8FP or CS1010-8FP, or the Sophos PoE++ 60W injector. If you're running several access points across ceilings and walls, a PoE switch is usually cleaner than one injector per AP.

What is the difference between the AP6 840 and the AP6 840E?

Both share the same 4x4:4 performance and 2.5GbE connectivity. The E adds a third radio for the 6 GHz band, which is Wi-Fi 6E. If you have newer client devices and want the least-congested spectrum for high-density areas, the 840E is the one to get. The 6 GHz band is not enabled in every country, so it's worth confirming availability for your region.

Do I need a Sophos firewall to use the AP6 840E?

No. AP6 Series access points are managed through Sophos Central, not through a Sophos firewall, so you do not need an XGS firewall to run them. If you already own Sophos Firewall you get tighter integration and faster automated threat response, but it is not required.

What does the support subscription cover, and is it required?

The hardware carries a limited lifetime warranty. A support and services subscription, one per access point, is what unlocks Sophos Central management, firmware updates, Advanced RMA, and 24/7 multi-channel support. Features delivered through Sophos Central need an active subscription, so for cloud-managed deployments you will want it in place.

How many users or devices can the AP6 840E handle?

As the top model in the AP6 line, the 840E is built for high-density spaces: busy offices, classrooms, and event areas with lots of clients connecting at once. Real-world capacity depends on your layout, client mix, and how the network is designed, so for a room-by-room plan our team can help size the number of access points you will need.

Can I mount the AP6 840E above a drop ceiling?

Yes. It's plenum-rated (UL2043), so it's approved for installation in the air-handling space above drop ceilings, along with standard desktop, wall, and ceiling mounting. It is an indoor access point; for outdoor coverage, look at the IP67-rated AP6 420X instead.
