Meraki Dual-Band 802.11ac Wave 2 Access Point with External Antenna Connectors

  Meraki MR42E Dual Band 802.11ac Wave 2 access point with external antenna connectors is a cloud-managed 3x3 MIMO 802.11ac Wave 2 access point. Designed for general purpose deployments in offices, schools, shops, and hotels, the MR42E provides performance, security, and manageability. The MR42E provides a maximum 1.9 Gbps frame rate with concurrent 802.11ac Wave 2 and 802.11n 3x3:3 MIMO radios, and security and spectrum visibility via a third radio dedicated to 24x7 WIDS/WIPS and automated RF optimization. An integrated Bluetooth low energy (BLE) radio delivers Beacon functionality and BLE device scanning.   Features External antenna connectors 3 x 3 MU-MIMO 802.11ac Wave 2 1.9 Gbps aggregate dual-band frame rate 24 x 7 real-time WIPS/WIDS and spectrum analytics via dedicated third radio Integrated Bluetooth Low Energy Beacon and scanning radio Enhanced transmit power and receive sensitivity Full-time WiFi location tracking via dedicated 3rd radio Integrated enterprise security and guest access Application-aware traffic shaping Self-configuring, plug-and-play deployment Sleek, low-profile design blends into office environments Optimized for voice and video Radios 2.4 GHz 802.11b/g/n/ac client access radio 5 GHz 802.11a/n/ac Wave 2 client access radio 2.4 GHz & 5 GHz dual-band WIDS/WIPS, spectrum analysis, and location analytics radio 2.4 GHz Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) radio with Beacon and BLE scanning support Concurrent operation of all three radios Supported frequency bands (country-specific restrictions apply): 2.412-2.484 GHz 5.150-5.250 GHz (UNII-1) 5.250-5.350 GHz (UNII-2) 5.470-5.600, 5.660-5.725 GHz (UNII-2e) 5.1725-5.825 GHz (UNII-3) Antenna List of compatible antennas: MA-ANT-3-A5/B5/C5/D5/E5/F5 Individual antenna elements for each radio 802.11ac Wave 2 and 802.11n Capabilities 3x3 multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) with three spatial streams SU-MIMO and MU-MIMO support Maximal ratio combining (MRC) and beamforming 20 and 40 MHz channels (802.11n), 20, 40, 80, and 160 MHz channels (802.11ac Wave 2) Up to 256-QAM on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands Packet aggregation Power Power over Ethernet: 37-57 V (802.3at required; functionality-restricted 802.3af mode supported) Alternative 12 V DC input Power consumption: 20 W max (802.3at) Power over Ethernet injector and DC adapter sold separately Interfaces 1x 10/100/1000 BASE-T Ethernet (RJ45) 1x DC power connector (5.5 mm x 2.5 mm, center positive) Five external RP-TNC antenna connectors Mounting All standard mounting hardware included Desktop, ceiling, and wall mount capable Ceiling tile rail (9/16, 15/16, or 1 1/2” flush or recessed rails), assorted cable junction boxes Bubble level on mounting cradle for accurate horizontal wall mounting Physical Security Two security screw options included Kensington lock hard point Concealed mount plate with anti-tamper cable bay Environment Operating temperature: 32 °F to 104 °F (0 °C to 40 °C) Humidity: 5% to 95% Physical Dimensions 10.55” x 6.3” x 1.69” (268 mm x 160 mm x 43 mm), not including desk mount feet or mount plate Weight: 38.45 oz (1.09 kg) Security Integrated Layer 7 firewall with mobile device policy management Real-time WIDS/WIPS with alerting and automatic rogue AP containment with Air Marshal Flexible guest access with device isolation VLAN tagging (802.1Q) and tunneling with IPSec VPN PCI compliance reporting WEP, WPA, WPA2-PSK, WPA2-Enterprise with 802.1X EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS, EAP-MSCHAPv2, EAP-SIM TKIP and AES encryption Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) & Mobile Device Management (MDM) integration Cisco ISE integration for guest access and BYOD posturing Quality of Service Advanced Power Save (U-APSD) WMM Access Categories with DSCP and 802.1p support Layer 7 application traffic identification and shaping Product Includes(1) Meraki MR42E Access Point (1) User Guide
