The Cisco Meraki Catalyst Outdoor Access Point, Model CW9163E-E (Regulatory Domain E), is an enterprise-grade, cloud-managed wireless AP engineered specifically to bring high-performance Wi-Fi 6E (6 GHz band) capabilities to outdoor and harsh environments. Equipped with tri-band simultaneous radio architecture supporting the 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and the newly opened 6 GHz spectrum, the CW9163E utilizes 2x2:2 MU-MIMO across all three bands to deliver low latency, increased bandwidth, and superior client capacity for modern high-density deployments.
Built for rugged exterior environments, the enclosure features an IP67 weather-resistant rating, protecting against water, dust, and extreme temperature variations. The access point includes an integrated multi-Gigabit (mGig) Ethernet port supporting up to 2.5 Gbps to eliminate wired backhaul bottlenecks. Managed 100% centrally through the intuitive web-based Cisco Meraki Dashboard, the CW9163E-E supports zero-touch provisioning, real-time remote monitoring, and automated security features.
