The Cisco Meraki MR36H is a wall-plate Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) access point managed from the Meraki Dashboard. It has a 2.4 GHz and a 5 GHz client radio, each 2x2 MU-MIMO with 2 spatial streams, for an aggregate frame rate of up to 1.5 Gbps. A third dual-band radio handles WIDS/WIPS and location analytics, and a fourth radio handles Bluetooth Low Energy.
It installs over a wall box. The Gigabit RJ-45 uplink is on the back. On the front are one Gigabit port with 802.3af PoE out, two more Gigabit outputs, and an unmanaged passthrough port. Internal omnidirectional antennas give 5.4 dBi of gain on 2.4 GHz and 6 dBi on 5 GHz.
Full function needs 802.3at PoE+ at 30W maximum; on 802.3af the AP runs in a low-power mode with PoE out disabled. There is no DC input. The unit measures 6.1 x 4.33 x 0.9 inches and weighs 17.35 oz, and these listings include the MA-MNT-MR-H2 wall mount kit.
For the Wi-Fi 5 version of this wall-plate design, see the MR30H-HW. For ceiling coverage, the MR36-HW has the same radios. Where the switch lacks PoE+, the MA-INJ-4-US 802.3at PoE+ injector gives it full power. The access point is sold unclaimed; a Meraki license is required, purchased separately.
This Cisco Meraki MR36H-HW access point is new and covered by the NetworkTigers one-year warranty. The original packaging may have been opened to inspect the contents.
