Information About MR42-HW
The MR42-HW is part of Cisco’s Meraki cloud-managed platform and features quad radios for optimized performance and security. It supports 3x3 MU-MIMO with three spatial streams and delivers a combined data rate of up to 1.9 Gbps. Integrated omni-directional antennas ensure broad coverage, while the device’s advanced radios support client access, WIDS/WIPS, Bluetooth Low Energy, and spectrum analysis. The MR42-HW requires a separate Meraki license and is powered via PoE or an optional DC adapter.
Key Features:
- 
Quad-Radio Configuration: Includes client access radios for 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, a dedicated dual-band WIDS/WIPS and analytics radio, and a Bluetooth radio for BLE support. 
- 
High-Speed Connectivity: Supports aggregated data rates up to 1.9 Gbps for seamless streaming and high-throughput applications. 
- 
Advanced MU-MIMO Support: 3x3:3 MIMO with both SU-MIMO and MU-MIMO capabilities for efficient multi-client handling. 
- 
Integrated Antennas: Internal omni-directional antennas (5 dBi 2.4 GHz, 5.5 dBi 5 GHz) optimized for strong signal and coverage. 
- 
Flexible Power Options: Supports 802.3at PoE (injector sold separately) and DC power input; backward-compatible with 802.3af with reduced functionality. 
This wireless access point ensures robust and secure connectivity for modern networks with high user density and performance expectations.
