AIR-AP2802I-A-K9 Cisco Wireless Access Point Internal Antenna Dual 5 GHz Ready For US Corporate Offices

Cisco AIR-AP2802I-A-K9: Premier Wi-Fi 5 for North American Enterprise Networks

The Cisco AIR-AP2802I-A-K9 is a top-tier indoor 802.11ac Wave 2 Cisco Wireless AP, specifically certified for deployment in the United States and Canada (A regulatory domain). It is designed to deliver exceptional performance and intelligent features for large enterprise organizations and high-density environments across North America.

Next-Gen Wave 2 Performance

This advanced Cisco Wireless AP features 4x4 MU-MIMO with three spatial streams, providing theoretical maximum data rates of up to 5.2 Gbps. Its support for 160-MHz channels ensures optimal throughput, making it ideal for bandwidth-intensive applications in crowded spaces. The innovative Flexible Radio Assignment allows the access point to intelligently adapt its radio operation, even enabling dual 5 GHz mode for ultimate capacity.

Intelligent RF for Unrivaled Reliability

Leveraging Cisco's cutting-edge RF innovations like ClientLink 4.0 for enhanced downlink performance to mobile devices, and CleanAir technology for proactive spectrum intelligence against wireless interference, the Aironet 2802I ensures robust and reliable connectivity. These features work in tandem to optimize client roaming and minimize noise, providing a seamless user experience that goes beyond what a basic Cisco Network Switch setup can achieve.

Robust Connectivity and Future-Ready Design

Equipped with two Gigabit Ethernet ports with Link Aggregation (LACP) support, the AIR-AP2802I-A-K9 provides strong backhaul for its high capacity. It supports 802.3at PoE+ and Cisco Universal PoE (UPOE), offering flexible power options. A USB 2.0 port is also included, ready for future IoT module expansion (enabled via future software updates).

Scalable and Secure Management for Enterprises

Designed for seamless integration into large-scale networks, the Aironet 2802I is a controller-based access point, managed by Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers (WLCs) or Cisco DNA Center. This centralized management ensures comprehensive control, robust security features like 802.1X RADIUS and WPA2, and simplified scalability for complex deployments across various industries in North America.
