Overview of Cisco Catalyst C9130AXI Series Access Point (C9130AXI-B) | New
With the Cisco® Catalyst® 9130AXI Wireless Access Point, you can create high-performance wireless networks. This wireless access point, which is suitable for networks of all sizes, supports IoT applications and assists businesses in reaping the full benefits of Wi-Fi® 6 technology. System administrators can use this access point to divide bandwidth into smaller frequency packets and assign them to individual customers in both the downlink and uplink directions. This decreases network overhead and latency, resulting in increased efficiency.
This Cisco Catalyst access point maximizes throughput by including eight spatial streams and a multiuser multiple input, multiple output (MU-MIMO) framework. The Flexible Radio Assignment (FRA) function assists the device in determining operating modes based on the radio frequency environment and traffic demands. This Cisco wireless access point includes an in-built wireless controller that enables extensive wireless LAN functionality without the use of a hardware controller. This switch provides faster data transmission and over-the-air downloads thanks to the embedded Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE) 5 radio.
