High Density Experience (HD Experience)

Building on the Cisco Aironet heritage of RF excellence, the 3700 Series utilizes a Purpose-built Innovative Chipset

with the Best-in-class RF Architecture. This chipset provides a High Density Experience for enterprise network

designed for mission critical, high performance applications. The 3700 is a series of flagship access points,

delivering industry-leading performance for highly secure and reliable wireless connections and delivers a robust

mobility experience that includes:

●

802.11ac with 4x4 multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology with three spatial streams, offering

sustained 1.3-Gbps rates over a greater range for more capacity and reliability than competing access

points.

●

Cross AP Noise Reduction

is a Cisco innovation that enables Access Points to intelligently collaborate in

real-time to allow more users to connect with optimized signal quality and performance.

●

Optimized AP Roaming ensures clients will associate with the best AP offering the best data rate available.

●

Cisco ClientLink 3.0 technology to improve downlink performance to all mobile devices, including one-, two-,

and three-spatial-stream devices on 802.11ac while improving battery life on mobile devices such as

smartphones and tablets.

●

Cisco CleanAir technology enhanced with 80MHz Channel Support, provides proactive, high-speed

spectrum intelligence across 20-, 40-, and 80-MHz-wide channels to combat performance problems due to

wireless interference.

●

Modular architecture design that is carried forward from the Cisco Aironet 3700, enabling flexible add-on

options in the form of the Cisco Aironet Wireless Security Module, the Cisco Universal Small Cell 5310

Module, and the future Cisco Aironet 802.11ac Wave 2 Module, which are tightly integrated with the Aironet

3700 Series Access Point platform and are completely field-upgradable.

●

MIMO equalization optimizes uplink performance and reliability by reducing the impact of signal fade.

The new Cisco Aironet 3700 Series sustains reliable connections at higher speeds farther from the access point

than competing solutions, resulting in up to three times more availability of 1.3-Gbps rates and optimizing the

performance of more mobile devices. The 3700 Series carries forward the modular architecture first introduced with

the Aironet 3600 Series and offers unparalleled investment protection, with support for the Cisco Aironet Wireless

Security Module, Cisco Universal Small Cell 5310 Module, and the future Cisco Aironet 802.11ac Wave 2 Module.

All of these features help ensure the best possible end-user experience on the wireless network.

Cisco also offers the industry’s broadest selection of 802.11n and 802.11ac antennas, delivering optimal coverage

for a variety of deployment scenarios.

Scalability

The Cisco Aironet 3700 Series is a component of the Cisco Unified Wireless Network, which can scale to as many

as 18,000 access points with full Layer 3 mobility across central or remote locations on the enterprise campus, in

branch offices, and at remote sites. The Cisco Unified Wireless Network is the industry’s most flexible, resilient,

and scalable architecture, delivering highly secure access to mobility services and applications and offering the

lowest total cost of ownership and investment protection by integrating smoothly with the existing wired network.
