Model Type: Enterprise Indoor Wi‑Fi 6E Wireless Access Point
Series: Cisco Catalyst 9136 Series (Internal Antennas; ROW regulatory domain)
Key Features
• Tri‑Band Wi‑Fi 6E (802.11ax) Support – Delivers next‑generation wireless across 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz bands with expanded spectrum for faster speeds and lower latency — ideal for high‑density enterprise environments.
• High Aggregate Throughput – Up to 10.2 Gbps PHY throughput leveraging simultaneous multi‑band radios and wide channel support (up to 160 MHz) for bandwidth‑intensive applications.
• Advanced MIMO & OFDMA –
• 8×8 MU‑MIMO on 5 GHz for eight spatial streams
• 4×4 MU‑MIMO on 2.4 GHz and 6 GHz
• OFDMA, BSS Coloring, TWT to improve network efficiency and reduce contention in dense deployments.
• Multigigabit Wired Uplinks – Two multigigabit Ethernet (RJ‑45) ports supporting up to 5 Gbps each for high‑speed wired backhaul and redundancy.
• Internal Omni‑Directional Antennas – Integrated antennas tuned for 2.4 GHz (~4 dBi), 5 GHz (~5 dBi), and 6 GHz (~6 dBi) for broad coverage in indoor spaces.
• Cisco IOS XE Software – Runs on Cisco’s modern IOS XE platform, supporting advanced RF intelligence, controller integration, and programmability.
• Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Radio – Integrated BLE capability for location services, IoT onboarding, and asset tracking.
• Flexible Power Options – Supports 802.3bt Cisco Universal PoE (UPOE) and 802.3at PoE+ (with reduced performance), with optional Cisco injector (e.g., AIR‑PWRINJ7=).
• Enterprise‑Grade Security – WPA3 and robust enterprise authentication ensure secure access; supports controller‑based policies and segmentation.
