Siemens 6GK5763-1AL00-3AA0 SCALANCE WUM763-1 IEEE 802.11ax Wi-Fi 6 4-Port IWLAN Access Point

The Siemens 6GK5763-1AL00-3AA0 SCALANCE WUM763-1 is an IWLAN client module for connecting Industrial Ethernet devices to a wireless network over IEEE 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6), delivering up to 1201 Mbit/s gross over 2x2 MIMO with two R-SMA antenna connections. It also provides 4x 10/100/1000 Mbit/s RJ45 ports, redundant 24 V DC supply, and an IP30 enclosure rated for -30...+60 degrees C operation.

Selection Notes

The 2x2 MIMO configuration with two spatial streams and dual R-SMA antenna ports lets the WUM763-1 maintain link quality in reflective industrial environments where a single-antenna client would drop packets. iPCF-2 client mode is the relevant setting for handover-sensitive links such as moving equipment, since standard WLAN roaming timing is too slow for continuous control traffic. The CLP slot with iFeatures support means the base unit ships without certain licensed functions active; confirm which iFeatures are required before ordering the CLP separately. Redundant 24 V inputs on the terminal block support a dual power-supply architecture without an external transfer switch, and the IP30 rating means this unit belongs inside a cabinet or enclosure, not directly in a washdown or outdoor area.

Applications

Wireless extension of Industrial Ethernet to distributed I/O, cranes, and other equipment that cannot be hard-wired; client-side connectivity for PROFINET or S7 communication over a SCALANCE W access point infrastructure.
