Description

The Aironet 1840 is an indoor 802.11ac Wave 2 (Wi-Fi 5) access point with 4x4 MU-MIMO, internal antennas and an integrated Bluetooth Low Energy radio. This K9C variant runs Cisco Mobility Express, so small and medium-sized businesses and distributed sites can operate a wireless network without a physical controller. The Z regulatory domain is the Australia and New Zealand channel plan.

The 5 GHz radio uses 4x4 MIMO with four spatial streams for PHY data rates up to 1733 Mbps on 80 MHz channels, while the 2.4 GHz radio is 2x2 with two spatial streams. Two 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 ports with PoE connect it to the network, and a console port and USB 2.0 port are also provided. It is powered by 802.3af, 802.3at or Cisco UPOE and draws 13.2 W at the PSE with all features enabled except USB. It carries 1 GB DRAM and 256 MB flash.

It runs Cisco Unified Wireless Network Software 8.8 MR2 or later, or IOS XE 16.12 or later, and works with Catalyst 9800 Wireless Controllers, 3500, 5520 and 8540 Series Wireless Controllers and the Cisco Virtual Wireless Controller. The integrated BLE 4.2 radio supports location services such as wayfinding and asset tracking, and the access point can also serve remote workers as an OfficeExtend Access Point.

FAQs

Q: Does this access point need a wireless controller?
A: No. The K9C variant runs Cisco Mobility Express, which lets it operate a small wireless network without a physical controller. It can also join a Catalyst 9800 Wireless Controller.

Q: Is a licence or subscription required?
A: Mobility Express needs no physical controller or additional licences. If the access point is joined to a Catalyst 9800 controller, it needs a Cisco DNA Essentials or Advantage software subscription.

Q: How is the Aironet 1840 powered?
A: It runs from 802.3af PoE, 802.3at PoE+ or Cisco UPOE, or from Cisco power injectors AIR-PWRINJ6= and AIR-PWRINJ5=. The AIR-PWRINJ5= is 802.3af only. The USB port is disabled when 802.3af is the power source.

Q: What does the Z regulatory domain mean?
A: Z is the regulatory domain for Australia and New Zealand. It sets the permitted channels, including 2.412 to 2.462 GHz and the 5 GHz bands between 5.180 and 5.825 GHz.

Q: Which controllers and software does it work with?
A: It works with Cisco Catalyst 9800, 3500, 5520 and 8540 Series Wireless Controllers, the Cisco Virtual Wireless Controller and Mobility Express. It needs Cisco Unified Wireless Network Software 8.8 MR2 or later, or IOS XE 16.12 or later.
