Cisco Meraki MR86 Wireless Access Point – High Performance 802.11ax Wireless

The Cisco Meraki MR86 is a cloud-managed 4×4:4 802.11ax access point that was designed for wireless performance and efficiency. Perfect for next-generation deployments in offices, schools, hospitals, shops and hotels, the MR86 offers high throughput, enterprise-grade security, and an easy-to-use management console.

The MR86 provides a maximum of 3.55 Gbps aggregate frame rate with concurrent 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radios. A dedicated 3rd radio provides real-time WIDS/WIPS with automated RF optimisation, and a 4th integrated radio delivers both Bluetooth scanning and beaconing.
