The Cisco Meraki MR56 Access Point (MR56-HW) features a 1× 2.5 Gbps Multigigabit Ethernet uplink with support for both 802.3at (PoE+) and 802.3bt (PoE++) power delivery, eliminating the need for separate power infrastructure in ceiling-mounted deployments. Built on the 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) standard, this indoor access point operates across 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz concurrent frequency bands, delivering a maximum aggregate frame rate of 5.9 Gbps. The 5 GHz radio provides 8×8:8 MU-MIMO capability up to 4.8 Gbps, while the 2.4 GHz radio delivers 4×4:4 MU-MIMO up to 1.1 Gbps. The four integrated radios—comprising 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz clients, dedicated RF scanning, and BLE/IoT functionality—work in concert with OFDMA support on both uplink and downlink channels to optimize spectrum efficiency. Enterprise-grade security is delivered through WPA3, WPA2, 802.1X, and Identity PSK (iPSK) protocols, while integrated Bluetooth Low Energy enables asset tracking and IoT scanning across enterprise facilities.
Network engineers and IT procurement teams deploying high-density wireless environments select the Cisco Meraki MR56 for its ability to support up to 800 associated clients per access point, making it ideal for campuses, hospitality venues, and large office installations. The device's cloud-managed architecture via Cisco Meraki cloud dashboard eliminates the need for on-premises controllers while maintaining advanced features such as BSS Coloring and Target Wake Time (TWT) support for improved client battery life and coexistence in interference-prone environments. The integrated omni-directional antenna design and operating range of 0°C to 40°C accommodate diverse deployment scenarios across indoor commercial and institutional settings.
Omnixon Global supplies the Cisco Meraki MR56-HW to enterprises across the UAE and broader region seeking reliable, scalable wireless infrastructure.
