Catalyst 9115AXI IEEE 802.11ax access point

The Cisco Catalyst 9115AXI-B is an indoor wireless access point supporting IEEE 802.11ax, 802.11ac Wave 2, 802.11n, 802.11g, 802.11a and 802.11b standards. It includes Bluetooth 5.0 and a 1/2.5GBase-T RJ-45 uplink port. A dedicated management port and USB 2.0 interface are also provided.

Suited for managed enterprise wireless

This access point fits organisations deploying Cisco Catalyst infrastructure with centralised management. It serves environments needing multi-standard Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.0 in a ceiling-mount form factor. It is not for buyers who require outdoor-rated enclosures or PoE-out capability. It also does not suit installations needing multigigabit uplinks beyond 2.5 Gbps.

Single 2.5 Gbps uplink port

The wired uplink is a single RJ-45 port operating at 1 Gbps or 2.5 Gbps. This capacity determines the maximum backhaul throughput available to the wireless radios. Verify that your switch ports and cabling support 2.5GBase-T to utilise the full uplink speed.

Questions about this item

How do I mount the C9115AXI-B and which RJ-45 port do I use for the 2.5G uplink?

Mount the 8.00" square unit on a ceiling or wall, then connect the PoE cable to the single 1/2.5GBase-T RJ-45 port; the separate management RJ-45 is for out-of-band console access only.

What ongoing maintenance does the Catalyst 9115AXI need after deployment?

Apply Cisco IOS XE software updates for security and 802.11ax performance; the USB 2.0 port supports local firmware recovery if a release upgrade fails.

What is the first throughput limit hit when the 9115 serves heavy client loads continuously?

The single 2.5GBase-T uplink caps aggregate wireless and Bluetooth 5.0 traffic at 2.5 Gbps, so sustained multi-client throughput cannot exceed that wired bottleneck.
