Outdoor Wireless Bridges Point-to-Point

[EvanBaumgartner]

Hello,

We are looking into installing a wireless PTP bridge to connect our main building to an outside garage. 

Are there any wireless bridge options that integrate with the Cisco Meraki Dashboard?

Thanks,
Evan

@EvanBaumgartner there is nothing specific.  How far apart are the buildings?

While certain outdoor aps with certain antenna options may work in certain conditions. Cisco is not really in the wireless bridge market anymore and hasn't been in years.

Once you provide distance we can let you know if something may work, but you also may want to be simultaneously looking at other options. Vendors with dedicated bridge products are able to work in different spectrums that may provide better connectivity and might be easier to manage and setup.

I don't enjoy their support model and definitely don't prefer to use them for anything else we use UniFi's UISP line for all of our wireless bridging.

I setup a connection like what you are looking for with 2 MR74's with panel antennas. It has worked great for about 2 years without any issues. I do have line of sight between the 2 buildings and a distance of about 1/4 mile. It looks like you may be able to accomplish this with the MR76.
