Grandstream GWN7672 Tri-Band Wi-Fi 7 AP | 11 Gbps & 384 Clients

Grandstream GWN7672: Enterprise‑Grade Tri‑Band Wi‑Fi 7 Access Point for High‑Density Environments

The Grandstream GWN7672 is a new‑generation enterprise‑grade 802.11be (Wi‑Fi 7) access point, purpose‑built for demanding indoor environments with medium‑to‑high user density. It is designed to handle the most intensive applications, from 4K/8K video streaming and large file transfers to real‑time collaboration and industrial IoT, all while delivering consistent, low‑latency connectivity.

Blazing Fast Tri‑Band Wi‑Fi 7 Performance

At the heart of the GWN7672 is tri‑band Wi‑Fi 7 technology with 2×2:2 MU‑MIMO and DL/UL Enhanced OFDMA, achieving a certified BE11000 aggregate wireless throughput of up to 11 Gbps. This translates into per‑band speeds of 688 Mbps on 2.4 GHz (2×2:2 MIMO), 4,320 Mbps on 5 GHz (2×2:2 MU‑MIMO) and 5,765 Mbps on 6 GHz (2×2:2 MU‑MIMO) – unlocking the full potential of the 6 GHz band for interference‑free Gigabit Wi‑Fi. The AP utilises 7 internal single‑frequency antennas (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, 6 GHz) with gains of 3.5 dBi (2.4 GHz) and 5.5 dBi (5 GHz/6 GHz), and leverages 4K‑QAM modulation (4096‑QAM) to pack 20% more data into each transmission, Multi‑Link Operation (MLO) to bond channels across bands for reduced latency, MRU to improve spectrum efficiency, and Preamble Puncturing to avoid interference. Wi‑Fi 7 also doubles the channel bandwidth up to 320 MHz, making it the ideal foundation for voice‑over‑Wi‑Fi deployments, scalable mesh networks, and converged wired/wireless infrastructure.

High‑Density Client & Coverage Capacity

The GWN7672 supports up to 384 concurrent Wi‑Fi client devices and delivers a coverage range of up to 175 metres (depending on environment). Its advanced QoS engine prioritises low‑latency, real‑time applications (VoIP, video conferencing, cloud collaboration) to ensure smooth performance even during peak usage.

Unmatched Wired Backhaul with 5G Ports

The AP features two 5 Gigabit Ethernet ports (10/100/1000/2500/5000 Mbps auto‑sensing) that can be configured as WAN/LAN, offering 5 Gbps aggregate wired throughput. Powered by PoE+ (802.3at) with a maximum power consumption of 25 W, the GWN7672 is easy to deploy where power outlets are scarce. It also includes Bluetooth Low Energy 5.3 for location‑based services and simplified onboarding.

Enterprise‑Grade Security & Secure Boot

The GWN7672 offers comprehensive security at both the network and device level. Network security includes WPA3 (personal/enterprise), WPA2/WPA2‑Enterprise, WEP, MAC filtering, client isolation, rogue AP detection and containment, and inbound/outbound traffic rules. Device‑level security includes anti‑hacking secure boot (prevents unauthorised firmware), digitally signed critical data/control lockdown, a unique security certificate per unit, a random default password, and ARP/ND attack defence.

Flexible & Free Management

Management is flexible and scalable at no extra cost:

• Embedded Controller – built into the AP, manages up to 50 local GWN APs via an intuitive web interface, ideal for controller‑less distributed deployments.

• GDMS Networking – free cloud platform for unlimited AP management, zero‑touch provisioning, real‑time monitoring, and bulk firmware updates.

• GWN Manager – on‑premise software controller for large‑scale, private deployments.
