The Cisco Aironet 1815i delivers industry-leading wireless performance with support for the latest Wi-Fi standard, IEEE's 802.11ac Wave 2. It also meets the growing requirements of wireless networks by delivering a better user experience.The 1815i extends support to a generation of Wi-Fi clients, such as smartphones, tablets, and high-performance laptops that have integrated 802.11ac Wave 1 or Wave 2 support.
MU-MIMO
Multiuser (MU) multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) allows transmission of data to multiple 802.11ac Wave 2 - capable clients simultaneously to improve the client experience. Prior to MU-MIMO, 802.11n and 802.11ac Wave 1 access points could transmit data to only one client at a time, typically referred to as single-user MIMO. 802.11ac Wave 2 with 2x2:2 MIMO technology uses two spatial streams when operating in SU-MIMO or MU-MIMO mode, offering 867 Mbps rates for more capacity and reliability than competing access points.
Cisco Mobility Express solution (future availability)
Flexible deployment through the Mobility Express solution is ideal for small to medium-sized deployments that require 25 or fewer access points. Easy setup allows the 1815i to be deployed on networks without a physical controller.
