CISCO CATALYST 9115AXE: Wi-Fi 6 Access Point with External Antennas
What applications is the Catalyst 9115AXE access point suitable for? Cisco’s Catalyst 9115AXE is intended for small and medium-sized businesses. Offices, shops, schools and universities, hospitals, even manufacturing facilities and warehouses can be provided with reliable network connectivity.
What are the advantages of Wi-Fi 6? Because of its low network latency, Wi-Fi 6 ensures stable connections even with a large number of devices. Compared to previous Wi-Fi standards, Wi-Fi 6 provides wider network coverage. As a result, IoT devices can be integrated at greater distances. Wi-Fi 6 is less susceptible to interference and the energy consumption is lower.
Why choose the Cisco Catalyst 9115AXE with external antennas? To improve network performance, the access point is equipped with MU-MIMO and OFDMA. It uses 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bandwidths as well as Bluetooth Low Energy 5.0. The external antennas enable improved signal quality even at longer distances. The AP Catalyst 9115AXE provides an optimal solution for IoT and cloud-based applications.
How secure is the access point? The Trust Anchor module protects your network infrastructure with multiple layers of security. It ensures hardware and software authenticity, secure data storage as well as secure password management. The Trust Anchor chip also enables encrypted data traffic and verifies the functionality of network devices. Additionally, a signature function and a secure boot function provide security.
Are employees working from home? The Cisco Catalyst 9115AXE access point can be used as an Office Extend Access Point (OEAP). This allows employees to securely connect to the company’s network from home without having to set up an additional VPN connection.
