Cisco Meraki MR44 WiFi 6 Indoor AP

Product Information

GHz 2x2:2 radio and 5 GHz 4x4:4 radio offer a combined dual-radio aggregate frame rate of 3 Gbps*, with up to 2,402 Mbps in the 5 GHz band and 573 Mbps in the 2.4 GHz band. Technologies like transmit beamforming and enhanced receive sensitivity allow the MR44 to support a higher client density than typical enterprise-class access points, resulting in better performance for more clients, from each AP. Multi User Multiple Input Multiple Output (MU-MIMO) Connect the power adapter or PoE. The radio and signal strength LEDs on the AP will turn solid green or blue once the access point boots up and detects the gateway. WEP**, WPA, WPA2-PSK, WPA2-Enterprise with 802.1X, WPA3 - Personal*, WPA3 - Enterprise*, WPA3 - Enhanced Open (OWE)* WEP*, WPA, WPA2-PSK, WPA2-Enterprise with 802.1X, WPA3 – Personal**, WPA3 – Enterprise**, WPA3 – Enhanced Open (OWE)** The MR44 AP attaches to the mount cradle with two tabs on the cradle that insert into the MR44 AP and is secured to the cradle using one screw.

With the combination of cloud management, high performance hardware, multiple radios, and advanced software features, the MR44 makes an outstanding platform for the most demanding of uses—including high-density deployments and bandwidth or performance-intensive applications like voice and high-definition video. MR44 and Meraki Cloud Management Due to the reasons stated above, please do not downgrade the network with MR44 APs to 27.5/27.5.1 or lower firmware if they are being powered on by 802.3af (PoE) switch/power injector.

Specifications:

Disposal of a technical device at the end of its service life should be carried out in accordance with the requirements of all state regulations and laws. Rules and conditions for the sale of equipment are determined by the terms of contracts concluded by Cisco or authorized Cisco partners with equipment buyers. If your access point still does not connect, the following instructions may be useful, depending on your issue. Industry standard QoS features are built-in and easy to configure. Wireless MultiMedia (WMM) access categories, 802.1p, and DSCP standards support all ensure important applications get prioritized correctly, not only on the MR44, but on other devices in the network. Unscheduled Automatic Power Save Delivery (U-APSD) and new Target Wait Time features in 802.11ax clients ensure minimal battery drain on wireless VoIP phones. Self-configuring, self-maintaining, always up-to-date Static IPs are assigned using the local web server on each AP. The following procedure describes how to set the static IP:

LITHIUM.Auth.LOGIN_URL_TMPL = "/plugins/common/feature/saml/doauth/post?referer=https%3A%2F%2FREPLACE_TEXT"; Using the dashed lines on the mount cradle template as a guide, set the proper spacing of the T-rail clips on the T-rail.The MR44 provides a maximum of 3 Gbps* aggregate frame rate with concurrent 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radios. A dedicated third radio provides real-time WIDS/WIPS with automated RF optimisation, and a fourth integrated radio delivers Bluetooth scanning and beaconing. The following steps can be used for troubleshooting basic connectivity issues with your access point. and 40 MHz channels (802.11n); 20, 40, and 80 MHz channels (802.11ac Wave 2); 20, 40 and 80MHz channels (802.11ax) For additional information on Meraki hardware and for other installation guides, please refer to documentation.meraki.com. The equipment is subject to installation and maintenance by specialists with the appropriate qualifications, sufficient specialized knowledge, and skills.

This is because the default MR44 firmware image has support for the low-power mode, however, MR 27.5/27.5.1 or lower firmware does not have low power mode support. Using 802.3af switch/powerinjector with MR44 set to 27.5/27.5.1 or lower firmware might result in unexpected behaviors including but not limited to reboots or degraded performance.

Industry standard QoS features are built-in and easy to configure. Wireless MultiMedia (WMM) access categories, 802.1p, and DSCP standards support all ensure important applications get prioritised correctly, not only on the MR44, but on other devices in the network. Unscheduled Automatic Power Save Delivery (U-APSD) and new Target Wait Time features in 802.11ax clients ensure minimal battery drain on wireless VoIP phones. The equipment is not for domestic use. The equipment is intended for operation without the constant presence of maintenance personnel.With support for features of 802.11ax (WiFi 6), the MR44 offers MU-MIMO and OFDMA for more efficient transmission to multiple clients. Especially suited to environments with numerous mobile devices, MU-MIMO enables multiple clients to receive data simultaneously. This increases the total network performance and improves the end user experience. This section applies to wall and/or solid ceiling, drop ceiling, or electrical junction box mount where you have already installed the mount cradle.) Due to the reasons stated above, please do notdowngrade the network with MR44 APs to 27.5/27.5.1 or lower firmware if they are being powered on by 802.3af (PoE) switch/power injector. Warning: Please ensure that MR44 is connected to an 802.3at-capable (PoE+) switch/powerinjector during the initial installation ORensure that the network the MR44 is added to is set to MR 27.6or newer firmware.

To mount your AP on a drop ceiling T-rail, use the included drop ceiling mounting accessory kit. The accessory kit can be used to mount to most 9/16”, 15/16” or 1 ½” T-rails. The kit contains: LITHIUM.PartialRenderProxy({"limuirsComponentRenderedEvent":"LITHIUM:limuirsComponentRendered","relayEvent":"LITHIUM:partialRenderProxyRelay","listenerEvent":"LITHIUM:partialRenderProxy"}); This is because the default MR44 firmware image has support for the low-power mode, however, MR 27.5/27.5.1 or lower firmware does nothave low power mode support.Using 802.3af switch/powerinjector with MR44 set to 27.5/27.5.1 or lower firmware might result in unexpected behaviors including but not limited to reboots or degraded performance.

The equipment is used in areas without exposure to harmful and dangerous production factors unless otherwise specified in the operational documentation and/or on the equipment labeling. If the Ethernet LED does not turn solid green or blue, try swapping the cable. If the Ethernet port still does not turn green or blue, try the second Ethernet port, if the AP has one.
