AP 25 - ruggedized outdoor access point

Overview

The AP 25 is the ruggedized access point in the Celona Orion platform — bringing deterministic private 5G NR reach to the most demanding industrial environments. Bringing the speed, security, and reliability of 5G NR to enterprises across industries, it was engineered to deliver pervasive cellular coverage across massive, critical industrial and outdoor areas — oil refineries, shipping ports, manufacturing yards, and large-scale campus environments.

As an integrated access point, it connects directly to your IT network with fewer components. Powered by CelonaOS, it delivers deterministic performance for business-critical applications and supports AerFlex — AP-only deployments with zero on-site infrastructure. Ultra-low latency under 10 ms enables applications like wireless PLCs and PROFINET.

Key benefits

The AP 25 is an Integrated Private 5G NR access point powered by Celona’s in-house stack, purpose-built for the harshest enterprise environments - indoor and outdoor, IP66-rated, and C1D2 certified for hazardous locations including chemical plants and Oil & Gas sites. Operating on band n48 (3.55-3.7 GHz) with AerFlex support, this integrated AP delivers fewer components, zero-touch provisioning, simpler installation, and a direct IT network connection - no additional hardware required for reliable industrial coverage.
