Happy Monday everyone! You may have heard about our announcement of MR45 and MR55, our new high-density Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) compatible devices. These APs, combined with the new aggregation and access switches we launched over the last several months help lay the foundation for seamless, high-efficiency network performance even in dense wireless environments. While the Wi-Fi 6/802.11ax amendment has a long list of new features, at its core, the purpose of Wi-Fi 6 is to deliver consistent performance and high throughput, in the real world. With features like OFDMA, MU-MIMO (DL & UL), 1024 QAM, BSS Color, Wi-Fi 6 will be able to deal with congested wireless areas much more elegantly. Some of the capabilities of the new Meraki MR models: MR55 8x8 with MU-MIMO and OFDMA and 1G/2.5G/5G Ethernet 5.9 Gbps aggregate frame rate (136% increase over MR53) Additional MCS Rates 10 & 11 Sleek “vessel” design PoE requires 802.3at compliance All the other Meraki MR benefits (Meraki dashboard, APIs, Wireless Health, quad-radio architecture, Umbrella integration, etc.) MR45 4x4 with MU-MIMO and OFDMA and 1G/2.5G/5G Ethernet 3.5 Gbps aggregate frame rate (40% increase over MR53) Additional MCS Rates 10 & 11 Sleek “vessel” design PoE requires 802.3at compliance All the other Meraki MR benefits (Meraki dashboard, APIs, Wireless Health, quad-radio architecture, Umbrella integration, etc.) We’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback on the new products and how you’re thinking about your Wi-Fi 6 deployments.
