AIR-AP1815W-A-K9C Overview
The Cisco Aironet 1815w Access Point offers a compact, wall plateCmountable access point, ideal for hospitality, cruise ships, residential halls, or other multiple-dwelling-unit deployments.Packing 802.11ac Wave 2 wireless standards support and Gigabit Ethernet wired connectivity into a sleek device, the 1815w is built to take full advantage of existing cabling infrastructure while blending into the visual footprint. This combination provides best-in-class performance while reducing total cost of ownership.
Product Details
Table 1 shows the Features and Benefits.
| Feature | Benefit |
| MU-MIMO | Multiuser (MU) multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) allows simultaneous data transmission to multiple 802.11ac Wave 2Ccapable clients to improve the client experience. Prior to MU-MIMO, 802.11n and 802.11ac Wave 1 access points could transmit data to only one client at a time. This was typically referred to as single-user MIMO (SU-MIMO). |
| Gigabit Ethernet ports | Three local Gigabit Ethernet ports are available to securely connect wired devices to the network. Traffic from wired devices can be tunneled back to a wireless LAN controller (for compatible controllers) or be locally switched by the access point. One of these Ethernet ports can also provide Power over Ethernet (PoE) out to power a device such as an IP phone or a security camera. |
| Cisco Mobility Express solution | Flexible deployment through theCisco Mobility Express solutionis ideal for small to medium-sized deployments that require 50 or fewer access points. Easy setup allows the 1815w to be deployed on networks without a physical controller. |
