Description

The Aironet 1815m is a dual-band 802.11ac Wave 2 (Wi-Fi 5) indoor access point from the Aironet 1800 series. It runs at higher transmit power than other 1815 models, which suits dense buildings such as hotels and dorm rooms, as well as small and medium businesses and remote worker or micro-office deployments using Office Extend Access Point mode.

It uses 2x2 MU-MIMO with two spatial streams and delivers up to 866.7 Mbps on 5 GHz with 80 MHz channels. Maximum transmit power is 27 dBm on 2.4 GHz and 24 dBm on 5 GHz, with integrated antennas of 2 dBi and 4 dBi. A single 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 port carries data and accepts 802.3af or 802.3at PoE, with a maximum draw of 13.9 W. It supports up to 400 clients per access point, 200 per radio.

The K9C suffix means it ships with Cisco Mobility Express as its default software, so smaller deployments of up to 50 access points can run without a physical controller. It is built for regulatory domain Z, covering the Australia and New Zealand region. It also works with AireOS controllers on release 8.5.103 or later and with Catalyst 9800 controllers.

FAQs

Q: What does the K9C suffix mean?
A: K9C means the access point ships with Cisco Mobility Express as its default software. This allows small to medium deployments of up to 50 access points to operate without a physical wireless controller.

Q: Does it need a licence or subscription?
A: Connecting the access point to a controller requires a Cisco DNA software subscription. Behind a Catalyst 9800 controller it supports Cisco DNA Essentials or Advantage subscriptions in 3, 5 or 7-year terms, managed through Smart Licensing or Specific License Reservation.

Q: How is it powered?
A: It runs on 802.3af or 802.3at PoE from a switch, or from optional Cisco power injectors AIR-PWRINJ5= or AIR-PWRINJ6=. Maximum draw is 13.9 W with 100 m Category 5 cable.

Q: Which controllers does it work with?
A: It works with AireOS controllers on release 8.5.103 or later, including the 2500, 3500, 5500, 8500 and Flex 7500 Series. It also works with Catalyst 9800 controllers, WiSM2 and the ISR G2 controller module, or standalone under Mobility Express.

Q: Which regulatory domain is it built for?
A: It is built for regulatory domain Z, which covers the Australia and New Zealand region. It supports channels across 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, with 5.600-5.640 GHz excluded in the 5.5 GHz band.
