Looking to potentially put an AP in my attic - would a regular one be able to handle the conditions?

So I am thinking about putting an AP in the attic of my two story 1,900 sf house, but wasn't sure if I needed to buy a special unit that an withstand the heat and cold or if a regular Ubiquity AC Pro would be just fine.

Obviously I would have to use POE.

Thanks!

Why not put it on the ceiling of the second floor ? Same coverage and it should be conditioned space.

You and your common sense.

Unless the CEO (aka wife) doesn't want another smoke detector...

at least you don't have to change the battery.
But do disable any led indicators.

unlike smoke detectors, APs dont make noise. Besides LEDs are cool, you should see a server room full of LEDs providing both lighting and a cool light show.

not when you are trying to go to sleep. LED light is painful.

Put some tape over it

i've got some 10 + year old black electrical tape still in service on a few.
virtual tape works better when i can get access to the config.
