Introduction

The Cisco® Aironet® 1815w Access Point (Figure 1) offers a compact, wall plate-mountable 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.

By adhering to the 802.11ac Wave 2 standard, the 1815w provides a data rate of up to 867 Mbps on its 5-GHz radio. This exceeds the data rates offered by access points that support the 802.11n standard. It also enables a total aggregate dual-radio data rate of up to 1 Gbps. This provides the necessary foundation for enterprise and service provider networks to stay ahead of the performance expectations and needs of their wireless users.

In recent years corporate users have increasingly preferred wireless access as their form of network connectivity, due to its convenience. With this shift, there is an expectation that wireless should not slow down users' day-to-day activities, but should enable a high-performance experience while allowing users to move about freely. The 1815w delivers industry-leading performance with highly secure and reliable wireless connections that provide a robust, mobile end-user experience.
