Wi-Fi 7 for large public venues
- Supporting Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be), the CW9179F is designed for incredible
performance in the most challenging environments.
Configurable antennas for specific coverage
- With software-configurable antenna configurations for boresight, wide, and front & back beam coverage, and additional external antennas, get signal where you want it.
Built-in GNSS/GPS
- A built-in GNSS/GPS receiver supports AFC, with the global use AP intelligently selecting regulatory domain and location.
Accelerometer
- A built-in accelerometer allows continuous, post-deployment verification of how the AP is installed.
Application hosting
- Application hosting helps simplify IoT deployments and ready them for the future by eliminating the need to install and manage overlay networks. Adding Cisco Catalyst Center provides workflows and deployment-wide application lifecycle management.
Convertible, indoor/outdoor model with 6GHz support outdoors
- With our patented environment pack, convert the CW9179F to be indoor or outdoor depending on your design and deployment needs, with the added benefit of 6 GHz spectrum in your large public venue.
Dual 10G Multigigabit Ethernet
- Dual Multigigabit Ethernet provides power-redundant and linkredundant uplink ports, each with speeds up to 10 Gbps. Link and power redundancy provides hitless performance during failover.
Note: Cat 6/Cat 6A cabling is required for 10 Gbps port speeds. Cat 5e cable can support speeds up to 5 Gbps.
AP power optimizations (AP Power Save mode)
- AP power optimizations (AP Power Save mode) allow the access point to reduce its power consumption (for example, by shutting off radios during off-hours and weekends) while still being smart enough to re- engage all features should they be needed. This both saves power and reduces the carbon footprint of running a wireless network.
Container support for applications
- Container support enables edge computing capabilities for IoT applications on the host access point.
