Redefine your Wi-Fi experience:
Today's hybrid workplace or tomorrow's ubiquitous connectivity starts with Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 6E.
Reliability
Connect more devices with improved performance.
Powerful
Support new immersive applications and use cases.
Simple
Operate your network on-premises or in the cloud with Cisco Catalyst Wi-Fi 6E access points.
The Catalyst IW9167E brings unmatched flexibility, as it can operate in one of two reliable wireless technologies: Wi-Fi 6 or Cisco URWB:
- All the benefits of Wi-Fi 6 in industrial or outdoor spaces: Higher density, higher throughput, more channels, power efficiency, and improved security.
- Cisco URWB provides ultra-reliable wireless connectivity for moving assets or to extend the network where running fiber isn't feasible or is too costly. It provides up to 99.995% availability, less than 10 ms latency, and zero packet loss with seamless handoffs. Cisco URWB is a proven technology that has been used by many customers, operates on unlicensed spectrum, deploys like Wi-Fi, and gives you full control of your network.
One platform, two wireless technologies:
Cisco Ultra-Reliable Wireless Backhaul
Ultra-Reliable Wireless Backhaul technology. Deploy and manage through IoT Operations Dashboard:
- Wireless connectivity to extend your network to mobile or remote locations
- Ultra-reliability with multipath operations
- High-availability, ultra-low latency
- Zero loss with seamless handoffs
- Full control of your network, unlicensed spectrum
- Deployable through Cisco IoT Operations Dashboard
Wi-Fi 6/6E-ready
Wi-Fi 6/6E-ready technology. Manage with Cisco DNA Center:
- Wi-Fi 6 access point for your industrial wireless needs
- High-bandwidth, high density, low-latency, longer battery life, improved security
- Support for workgroup bridge (WGB)
- Wi-Fi 6E-ready (pending regulatory agencies' usage approvals)
- Management with Cisco DNA Center
Features and Benefits:
Features | Benefits |
---|---|
Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax)/Wi-Fi 6E-ready | The IEEE 802.11ax standard, also known as High-Efficiency Wireless or Wi-Fi 6, builds on 802.11ac. IW9167 can support up to a 7.8-Gbps PHY data rate with 4x4 MIMO and four spatial streams. Wi-Fi 6E is Wi-Fi 6 "extended" into the 6 GHz frequency band, allowing the use of additional channels. IW9167 is Wi-Fi 6E ready, subject to approvals and regulations for the use of the 6 GHz spectrum by each countries' regulatory agencies. |
Flexible multitechnology support | Two different technologies (Wi-Fi and Cisco URWB) provide flexibility to choose a mode based on the use case. Ability to swap images in the field helps change modes between Wi-Fi and Cisco URWB without changing the hardware. |
Tri-radio architecture | IW9167 has the following three data radios:
|
Multigigabit Ethernet | Dual Multigigabit Ethernet supports speeds up to 5 Gbps. All speeds are supported on Category 5e cabling, as well as 10GBASE-T (IEEE 802.3bz) cabling. |
Smart AP | Smart AP causes the access point to change its power consumption to reflect its current client load. An access point will typically operate on the radios provided to it regardless of how many clients are connected. With Smart AP, if the number of clients is small enough, the access point will automatically reduce the radio stream count, saving power. |
Band steering | Enhanced to help clients that are 6 GHz capable to leave the 5 GHz radio and connect to the 6 GHz one. Wi-Fi 6E clients are automatically directed to connect to the 6 GHz radio to take advantage of the benefits that the radio offers and free up the 2.4- and 5 GHz radios for legacy clients. IW9167 is Wi-Fi 6E ready, subject to approvals and regulations for the use of the 6 GHz spectrum by each countries' regulatory agencies |
Uplink/downlink OFDMA | Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA)-based scheduling splits the bandwidth into smaller frequency allocations called Resource Units (RUs), which can be assigned to individual clients in both the downlink and uplink directions to reduce overhead and latency. |
Uplink/downlink MU‑MIMO technology | Supporting four spatial streams, Multiuser Multiple Input, Multiple Output (MU-MIMO) enables access points to split spatial streams between client devices to maximize throughput. |
BSS coloring | Spatial reuse (also known as Basic Service Set [BSS] coloring) allows the access points and their clients to differentiate between BSSs, thus permitting more simultaneous transmissions. |
Target Wake Time | Target Wake Time (TWT) allows the client to stay asleep and to wake up only at prescheduled (target) times to exchange data with the access point. This offers significant energy savings for battery-operated devices, up to three to four times the savings achieved by 802.11n and 802.11ac. |
Intelligent Capture | Intelligent Capture probes the network and provides Cisco DNA Center with deep analysis. The software can track more than 240 anomalies and instantaneously review all packets on demand, emulating the onsite network administrator. Intelligent Capture allows for more informed decisions on your wireless networks. |
Bluetooth 5.1 | The integrated Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) 5 radio enables location-based use cases such as asset tracking, wayfinding, and analytics. |
Scanning radio | Dedicated radio for monitoring air space to perform advanced RF spectrum analysis and deliver features such as Cisco CleanAir®, Wireless Intrusion Prevention System (wIPS), and Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS). |
GNSS | A built-in GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) receiver provides coordinates to track the location of the access point. |
M12 adapter | M12 adapter accessories give the flexibility to convert Ethernet and power interfaces on the base unit into M12 interfaces while retaining all the certifications. |
Multipath operations | Multipath operations (MPO) can enhance reliability by sending duplicate copies of packets across multiple wireless paths. |
Workgroup bridge (WGB) | Provides wireless connectivity to a lightweight access point infrastructure on behalf of wired clients that are connected via Ethernet behind the WGB access point. |
Prominent feature
Get reliable wireless connectivity for your mission-critical applications
As you automate your processes and operations to increase safety and productivity, you also need to improve your situational awareness to control your systems. Moving assets involved in mission-critical applications, such as Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs), Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs), and teleremote devices, require reliable wireless connectivity. And sometimes you need to extend your network where running fiber isn't feasible or is too costly.
The Catalyst IW9167E gives you flexibility and reliability so you can extend reliable wireless connectivity to more places and applications, with features such as:
- One hardware device, two modes of operation: Protect your investment and evolve your wireless networks without the added cost of purchasing a new device. Simply update the software to run Wi-Fi 6 or Cisco URWB.
- Multipath operations (MPO): Patented technology that duplicates your high-priority traffic and works alongside hardware failures to increase availability, lower latency, and lower the effects of interference and hardware failures.
- Workgroup bridge (WGB): In workgroup bridge mode, the device associates to another access point as a client and provides a network connection for the equipment connected to its Ethernet port.
- Heavy-duty design: IP67-rated, hardened to withstand shock, vibration, and extreme temperatures. Supports industrial protocols and industrial certifications (e.g. rail - EN50155).
