The Cisco® Business 240AC access point provides the ideal combination of high performance in a compact form. Equipped with 802.11ac Wave 2, 4x4 MU-MIMO technology, this platform is ideal for deployment in small and medium enterprises.
The IEEE 802.11ac Wave 2 standard provides better performance for advanced applications such as 4K or 8K video, high-resolution collaboration applications, wireless offices and the Internet of Things (IoT). Supporting four radio streams, MU-MIMO allows access points to distribute the signal between client devices to maximize throughput.
With Cisco Business Mobile you can easily deploy and configure multiple Cisco Business Wireless access points and Cisco Mesh Extenders without the need for a physical controller. Optional remote management of multiple access points is available through Cisco FindIT Network Management applications.
It is possible to mix Cisco Business Mesh devices and Cisco Business access points to increase the range of WiFi network.
The Cisco Business 240AC access point can be managed by Cisco Business Mobile, an intuitive application that simplifies traditional wireless deployment challenges directly from your mobile device. You can expand your network by adding new mesh devices and automating wireless network activation in minutes. Real-time data such as: network consumption monitoring, traffic and bandwidth patterns are available directly from your mobile application. Cisco Business Mobile application is available for iPhone, iPad and Android devices.
