Cisco Catalyst 9115AXE-A Wireless Access Point
The Cisco Catalyst 9115AXE-A is a Wi-Fi 6 indoor access point delivering up to 5.38 Gbps aggregate data rate. It features 4x4 MU-MIMO dual radios and an integrated Bluetooth Low Energy 5.0 radio for location services. The unit supports controller-managed deployment with embedded wireless controller functionality for simplified network monitoring and troubleshooting. Power is supplied via 48 V DC PoE.
Ideal for enterprise indoor deployments needing
This access point suits organisations requiring OFDMA, BSS colouring and Target Wake Time for efficient dense environments. It is not for buyers needing a standalone consumer router or mesh node without controller infrastructure. It also does not suit installations lacking PoE switching or 48 V DC power sourcing equipment. Outdoor or hazardous-location installations require a different form factor.
Ceiling or wall mount with included brackets
Installation uses the supplied mounting brackets and optional ceiling grid clips for standard tile ceilings. The unit connects via a single multigigabit Ethernet RJ-45 port supporting 100, 1000 and 2500 Mbps links plus a USB 2.0 port and management console. Common issues include missing PoE budget on the switch side and forgetting to enable the embedded wireless controller mode on C9115AXI(E)-EWC models.

Questions about this item
What upstream switch or injector must I already have to power the C9115AXE-A over its single Ethernet cable?
The unit draws 48 V DC through its RJ-45 port, so the connected switch or mid-span injector must be able to deliver that voltage over the cable.
Will my existing 802.11n and 802.11ac clients connect to the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radios on this access point?
Yes, the radios support 802.11n, 802.11a, 802.11g and 802.11ac on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, so older clients will associate normally.
How can I confirm the 5.38 Gbps Wi-Fi 6 link is active after mounting the AP and attaching the four external antennas?
Log into the embedded controller WebGUI or mobile app and check the client connection details; they will show the negotiated PHY rate up to 5.38 Gbps when a compatible 4x4 MU-MIMO device is connected.
