Overview

The Cisco Catalyst 9163E is a ruggedized, IP67-rated Wi-Fi 6E access point built for outdoor, industrial, and challenging indoor environments that require external antennas. Four N-type connectors let integrators tailor coverage with directional or omnidirectional antennas, while tri-band 6 GHz support delivers clean spectrum. It uses 2x2 MIMO on each of the three bands for 6 total spatial streams, with a 2.5 Gigabit multigigabit RJ-45 uplink and PoE+ power. This MR variant is managed from the Meraki cloud dashboard, with an integrated Bluetooth Low Energy / IoT radio and a GNSS antenna for AFC-compliant 6 GHz operation.
