Global use access point – Cisco Wireless 9178 and 9176 series
Cisco’s next-generation Wi-Fi 7 access point platforms offer a versatile solution for wireless deployment, simplifying and protecting your investments. Unlike previous generations that may have required costly hardware replacements when migrating between on-premises Catalyst Wireless stacks and cloud-based Meraki wireless stacks, the new Wi-Fi 7 series introduces common access point hardware that seamlessly operates in either mode. This innovation began with Wi-Fi 6E access points and has been refined with Wi-Fi 7, reducing the requirement for purchase of similar but separate hardware products and eliminating the need for stack-specific and regulatory domainspecific models.
Cisco Wi-Fi 7 access points feature an intelligent management mode discovery process, ensuring smooth deployment whether starting fresh or migrating between stacks. Additionally, a straightforward migration path from the Meraki cloud to the Catalyst 9800 WLC underscores Cisco’s commitment to flexible, future-proof solutions, consolidating hardware and streamlining management processes for modern wireless networks.
