Meraki Dual-Band 1.90Gbps 2.4/5GHz Wave 2 Wireless Ceiling Mountable Access Point
Meraki Dual-Band 1.90Gbps 2.4/5GHz wave 2 wireless ceiling mountable access point is a four radio, cloud-managed 3x3 MU-MIMO access point. Designed for next-generation deployments in offices, schools, hospitals, shops, and hotels, the MR42 offers performance, security, and simple management. The MR42 provides a maximum 1.9 Gbps frame rate with concurrent 802.11ac Wave 2 and 802.11n 3x3:3 MIMO radios. A dedicated third radio provides real-time WIDS/WIPS with automated RF optimization. In addition, an integrated fourth radio delivers Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) scanning and Beaconing functionality.
