300-Mbps rates over a greater range for more capacity and reliability than competing access points
●
Radio resource management (RRM): Automated self-healing optimizes the unpredictability of RF to reduce
dead spots and help ensure high-availability client connections
●
CleanAir Express: Effectively detects RF interference and provides basic spectrum analysis capability while
simplifying ongoing operations
●
Cisco ClientLink 2.0 technology: Improves downlink performance to all mobile devices including 802.11n
while improving battery life on mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets
●
Cisco BandSelect technology: Improves 5-GHz client connections in mixed-client environments
Cisco VideoStream technology: Uses multicast to improve rich-media applications
●
Building on the Cisco All of these features help ensure the best possible end-user experience on the
