Applied Practical Energetic Solutions (APES), LLC has been producing highly durable Wireless Access Point (WAP) protective covers since 2002.
The business started when a school district in Colorado requested a simple, easy to install cover to protect their brand new WAP system. Our design kept their expensive equipment from being taken, or from being painted over by the maintenance department. WAPs were a new thing back then!
APES has created thousands of clear poly-carbonate covers that have been installed without a single reported failure. Each custom design is created for each new AP version in order to facilitate a low profile, strong, clear polycarbonate cover that meets Class 3 Fire ratings and no detectable decrease in RX/TX transmission. The covers are optimized for heat convection air flow. It is also a clear shield from flying object or curious hands.
When manufacturers like Cisco Meraki started implementing additional external antennae, the AP covers became much more elaborate in design to optimize strength and aesthetics. There are pictures and diagrams of past and current units available on our Gallery and Spec pages.
Ease of installation has also been a high priority. Most installers find a typical wall install takes less than 5 minutes with little experience: just place the cover over the AP and use the built-in cable routing retention slots to maintain a protective bubble around the AP. Some institutions have the same people who install the AP install the cover.
Schools, Colleges and Industrial enterprises have been the biggest users of our protection of their investment.
