Features:
- IEEE 802.11ax radio service operates in the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands.
- Two N-Connect sockets feed a 2x2 MIMO antenna arrangement.
- Gigabit M12 Ethernet supports PoE beside redundant 24 V DC input.
Siemens 6GK5766-1GE00-7DA0 connects industrial wireless stations to a wired Ethernet segment as a SCALANCE WAM766-1 access point.
The 6GK5766-1GE00-7DA0 antenna system uses two spatial streams, so both antenna paths must be included in RF planning.
Power, Ethernet, and digital I/O use separate keyed M12 connections on 6GK5766-1GE00-7DA0 to prevent the three circuits from being treated as interchangeable.
The Siemens 6GK5766-1GE00-7DA0 SCALANCE WAM766-1 Wi-Fi 6 IWLAN Access Point may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Radio and Antenna Arrangement
- Wireless standard: IEEE 802.11ax defines the Wi-Fi 6 radio link used by 6GK5766-1GE00-7DA0.
- Radio bands: The installed radio operates in the permitted 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz channels for the configured country.
- MIMO path: Two spatial streams divide the radio data across two antenna paths.
- Antenna sockets: The two N-Connect connections attach the external antennas required by the 2x2 arrangement.
- RF planning: Cable loss, antenna gain, mounting position, and permitted channels must be evaluated together for each installation.
Wired Network and Power
- Connector role: The X-coded M12 socket is the wired data connection between the access point and Industrial Ethernet.
- Data rate: That Ethernet path negotiates 10, 100, or 1000 Mbit/s with the connected network device.
- PoE supply: The same Ethernet connection can deliver the documented 48 V PoE feed to 6GK5766-1GE00-7DA0.
- Local supply: An L-coded M12 socket accepts the redundant 24 V DC feed independently of the PoE path.
Local Digital Signaling
- I/O connector: The A-coded M12 interface keeps the digital I/O circuit separate from Ethernet and power connections.
- Input channel: The digital input converts the connected DC status signal into a local device state.
- Output channel: The digital output switches a documented 24 V DC load of up to 0.5 A.
- Circuit boundary: The input and output use the assigned I/O pins and must not be wired to the X-coded or L-coded connectors.
Enclosure and Mounting
- Enclosure protection: The IP65 housing protects the installed device when every connector and unused opening is correctly sealed.
- Direct mounting: Wall and VESA patterns attach 6GK5766-1GE00-7DA0 directly to the selected surface.
- Rail mounting: A separate adapter is required when the access point is fitted to a mounting rail.
- Temperature range: The -30 to 60 °C operating limit applies to this non-EEC variant after the mounting location is selected.
