Features:
- One IEEE 802.11a/b/g/h radio operates in the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz band.
- Two R-SMA ports connect the external antenna system to the internal radio.
- IP65 construction and wall or S7-300 rail mounting support industrial installation.
Siemens 6GK5788-1AA60-2AA0 bridges wireless clients to a 10/100 Mbit/s industrial Ethernet network through its hybrid connector.
The wired connection can provide Power over Ethernet, while separate 24/48 V DC supply input offers another power path.
A removable C-PLUG retains configuration data, and PROFINET IO diagnostics or SNMP report access-point status.
The Siemens 6GK5788-1AA60-2AA0 SCALANCE W788-1PRO IWLAN Access Point may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Wireless Signal and Antenna Paths
- Band selection: The single radio operates in either the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz band for the configured network.
- Antenna path: Two R-SMA connectors carry the selected external antenna arrangement to the internal radio.
- Wireless bridge: Radio client traffic is transferred between the IEEE 802.11 air interface and the wired Ethernet side.
- Throughput mode: The standard path reaches 54 Mbit/s, while the defined turbo mode uses multiple channels for up to 108 Mbit/s.
Wired Data and Power Entry
- Ethernet path: The hybrid RJ45 interface carries 10/100 Mbit/s traffic between the access point and the wired network.
- PoE path: Power over Ethernet can enter through the same hybrid connector used for network data.
- DC path: A separate 24 or 48 V DC input provides an alternative supply route.
- Configuration memory: The removable C-PLUG stores configuration independently of the fixed access-point electronics.
Wireless Access and Link Protection
- Authentication: WPA or WPA2 controls which configured stations can join the wireless network.
- Encryption: TKIP or AES protects data moving across the selected radio security profile.
- Wireless distribution: WDS forwards traffic between configured access points without changing the client-side radio role.
- Link monitoring: IP Alive, SNMP, and PROFINET IO diagnostics report network and device condition through separate mechanisms.
Outdoor Enclosure Installation Limits
- Physical mounting: The housing attaches to a wall or S7-300 rail according to the selected installation hardware.
- Enclosure protection: IP65 protection applies when the housing and external connections are installed as specified.
- Operating range: The access point operates from -20 to +60 °C within its stated supply conditions.
- Moisture rating: The environmental specification permits up to 100% relative humidity, including condensation.
