Features:
- Two permanently installed radio cards provide the wireless paths.
- Six N-CON sockets connect external antennas for the two-radio design.
- The device combines M12 Ethernet with PoE or redundant DC power options.
The two-radio W788-2 M12 arrangement separates the wireless side from a single X-coded M12 Industrial Ethernet connection.
Six external-antenna sockets give the radio layout a specific physical boundary; match these to the planned antenna design rather than infer them from a one-radio model.
Configuration can be handled through the web interface, CLI, STEP 7, or TIA Portal, while removable plug storage supports the documented configuration and feature workflow.
The Siemens 6GK5788-2GD00-0AA0 SCALANCE W788-2 M12 IWLAN access point may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
