AP model selection
Catalyst 9176I / 9178I / 9166I chosen by environment, density, and 6 GHz needs.
Wireless
Plan the next wireless refresh without guessing the AP count.
Uniqcli sizes Cisco Wi-Fi 7 and Wi-Fi 6E deployments around users, room count, wall material, density, outdoor areas, and service scope.
Sized from real inputs
Access-point, port, and rack counts are derived from your facility — not guesswork or a generic template.
Validated Cisco BOM
Uniqcli confirms the exact SKUs, licensing tier and term, services, and availability before you sign.
Procurement-ready
TAA posture, contract vehicle, and CLIN structure so the quote clears your buyer the first time.

Frequently asked questions
Common wireless questions, answered by the Uniqcli Team.
What is the difference between Wi-Fi 7 and Wi-Fi 6E?
Both use the 6 GHz band. Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax) opened 6 GHz; Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) adds 320 MHz channels, 4K-QAM, and Multi-Link Operation for higher throughput and lower latency. If you are refreshing now, Wi-Fi 7 future-proofs high-density and real-time workloads.
Do Cisco Wi-Fi 7 access points need a license?
Yes. Catalyst 9800-managed APs run on Network Advantage/Premier (or DNA) subscriptions, and Meraki-managed APs need an enterprise license. Uniqcli sizes the right tier and term alongside the hardware so there is no gap at turn-up.
How many access points will I need?
It depends on square footage, user density, wall material, and AP model. Our quote builder sizes AP count from rooms, users, and environment, then Uniqcli validates it with an RF survey for SCIF, multi-floor, or outdoor sites.
Can the access points be managed on-prem or in the cloud?
Cisco's latest APs can run controller-managed (Catalyst 9800) or cloud-managed (Meraki) and be redeployed if your management strategy changes. We scope the controller path that fits your operations.
Are Cisco Wi-Fi 7 APs TAA-compliant for government?
Yes — we quote TAA-compliant Catalyst SKUs with country-of-origin documentation for federal, state, local, and education buyers.
