CW9163E Meshing

Does anyone know if the CW9163E-MR can mesh?

I can't seem to find anything in the documentation.

 

Thanks

Yes, it supports meshing. It doesn't seem to be explicitly stated in the datasheet but as per the installation guide:

"If used in a mesh deployment, the CW9163E should have a line of sight to at least two other Meraki devices."

  - Then the other Meraki document should be updated accordingly,

That information is about New Mesh Features in MR 29.1+ Firmware.
