With a sleek design and small form factor, the Cisco Business 145AC Access Point brings a full slate of Cisco high-performance functionality to in-room or office deployments where a mixture of wired and wireless devices is used. The Cisco® Business 145AC Access Point (Figure 1) is a compact, wall plate–mountable access point, ideal for in-room or office deployments requiring connectivity for both wired and wireless devices. Incorporating support for 802.11ac Wave 2 wireless standards and Gigabit Ethernet wired connectivity into a sleek device, the Cisco Business 145AC is built to take full advantage of in-wall cabling infrastructure while blending into the visual footprint. This combination provides deployment flexibility while offering best-in-class performance. By adhering to the 802.11ac Wave 2 standard, the Cisco Business 145AC Access Point delivers a data rate of up to 867 Mbps on its 5-GHz radio. This exceeds the data rates offered by access points that support the 802.11n standard. It also enables a total aggregate dual-radio data rate of up to 1 Gbps, providing the necessary foundation for small business and Managed Service Providers (MSPs) to stay ahead of the performance expectations and needs of their wireless users. In recent years, small businesses, enterprises, and managed service providers alike have increasingly preferred wireless access as the principal form of network connectivity. Along with this shift, there is an expectation that wireless should enable a high-performance experience. The Cisco Business 145AC Access Point delivers industry-leading performance with highly secure and reliable wireless connections, for a robust, mobile end-user experience. Increased wireless performance The Cisco Business 145AC Access Point supports the latest 802.11ac Wave 2 standard for higher performance, greater access, and higher-density networks. With simultaneous dual radios and dual bands with 802.11ac Wave 2 MU-MIMO functionality, this access point can handle the increasing number of high-bandwidth devices that will soon become a common part of the network. Cisco Business Mobile app The Cisco Business 145AC Access Point is managed by the Cisco Business Mobile app, an intuitive client application that simplifies traditional challenges associated with wireless network deployment, right from your mobile device. You can extend your network by adding new mesh extenders and automating wireless network activation in minutes. A robust management capability dynamically changes network configuration such as enabling guest access. Network usage, traffic patterns, and network throughput can be closely monitored, providing a real-time snapshot; this not only provides peace of mind, it virtually ensures optimal user experience. The Cisco Business Mobile app is available for iPhone, iPad, and Android devices. Wired access The Cisco Business 145AC Access Point allows wired access via a single Gigabit Ethernet port.
