Description

The Cisco Meraki MR44 is a cloud-managed Wi-Fi 6 indoor access point designed for high-density enterprise deployments. Featuring 2x2:2 MIMO on 2.4 GHz and 4x4:4 MIMO on 5 GHz, it delivers up to 2.7 Gbps aggregate throughput with a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet uplink. Four integrated radios include dedicated WIDS/WIPS for 24/7 wireless security, automated RF optimization, and Bluetooth Low Energy for location services. Ideal for offices, schools, hospitals, retail environments, and hotels requiring enterprise-grade wireless performance with zero-touch cloud deployment.

FAQs

Q: Does the MR44 require a Meraki license to operate?
A: Yes, all Meraki access points require an active cloud management license (Enterprise or Advanced) to function. The license enables dashboard access, automatic firmware updates, 24/7 support, and full feature set. Licenses are sold separately in 1, 3, 5, 7, or 10 year terms.

Q: What is the difference between 802.3af and 802.3at PoE for the MR44?
A: The MR44 supports both 802.3af PoE (15W) and 802.3at PoE+ (30W). When powered by 802.3af, the access point operates in low-power mode with reduced functionality. For full performance including all four radios and maximum transmit power, 802.3at PoE+ is required.

Q: Can the MR44 be deployed outdoors?
A: No, the MR44 is designed for indoor use only. For outdoor wireless coverage, consider the Meraki MR76, MR86, or other outdoor-rated access points from the Meraki MR series that feature weatherproof enclosures and extended temperature ratings.

Q: What is the purpose of the third dedicated radio on the MR44?
A: The third radio is a dedicated dual-band scanning radio that provides 24/7 wireless intrusion detection and prevention (WIDS/WIPS), RF spectrum analysis, and location analytics without impacting client data throughput. This eliminates the trade-off between security scanning and client serving typical of single-radio designs.

Q: Is the MR44 compatible with non-Meraki network infrastructure?
A: Yes, the MR44 can connect to any standard Ethernet switch that provides PoE+ power and network connectivity. However, for full-stack visibility and unified management, Meraki MS switches and MX security appliances integrate seamlessly via the Meraki Dashboard.
