Overview:

Gigabit Wi-Fi Has Fully Arrived: Redesign your enterprise wireless LAN to support the explosion of mobile devices. Cisco's cost-effective enterprise access point supports the latest Wi-Fi standard, 802.11ac Wave 2. Designed for small and medium-sized networks, the Aironet 1830 Series meets the growing requirements of wireless networks and delivers a better user experience.

Ideal for small and medium-sized networks, the Cisco® Aironet® 1830 Series delivers industry-leading wireless performance with support for the latest Wi-Fi standard, IEEE’s new 802.11ac Wave 2 specification, and meets the growing requirements of wireless networks by delivering a better user experience. The 1830 Series extends support to a new generation of Wi-Fi clients, such as smartphones, tablets, and high-performance laptops that have integrated 802.11ac Wave 1 or Wave 2 support.

Features and Capabilities

Flexible deployment modes.

  • Cisco Mobility Express Solution is an easy-to-deploy solution for up 25 access points that does not require a controller appliance
  • Controller-based deployments support small and medium-sized networks that exceed 25 access points

Better Wi-Fi coverage and performance with the latest Wi-Fi technology.

  • Supports 802.11ac Wave 2 (dual radio, 80 MHz channel size) and 3x3 multiple input and multiple output (MIMO)

Improved client performance with multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO).

  • Get MU-MIMO with two spatial streams for 802.11ac Wave 2 clients
  • Transmit beamforming for a better client experience

Features:

With 802.11ac Wave 2, the 1830 Series provides a data rate of up to 867 Mbps on the 5-GHz radio, exceeding the data rates offered by today’s high-end 802.11n access points. It also enables a total aggregate dual-radio data rate of up to 1 Gbps, providing the necessary foundation for enterprise and service provider networks to stay ahead of the performance and bandwidth expectations and needs of their wireless users.

Due to its convenience, wireless access is increasingly the preferred form of network connectivity for corporate users. Along with this shift, there is an expectation that wireless should not slow down users’ day-to-day work, but should enable a high-performance experience while allowing users to move freely. The 1830 Series delivers industry-leading performance for highly secure and reliable wireless connections and provides a robust mobility experience that includes:

  • 802.11ac Wave 2 with 3x3 multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology with two spatial streams when operating in single-user or multiuser MIMO mode, offering 867-Mbps rates for more capacity and reliability than competing access points.
  • Multiuser MIMO (MU-MIMO) allows transmission of data to multiple 802.11ac Wave 2 capable clients simultaneously to improve client experience. Prior to MU-MIMO, 802.11n and 802.11ac Wave 1 access points could transmit data to only one client at a time, typically referred to as single-user MIMO.
  • Transmit beamforming technology improves downlink performance to mobile devices, including one- and two-spatial-stream devices on 802.11ac, while improving battery life on mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets.
  • Flexible deployment mode through the Mobility Express Solution is ideal for small to medium-sized deployments that that require 25 or fewer access points. Easy setup allows the 1830 Series to be deployed on networks without a physical controller.

All of these features help ensure the best possible end-user experience on the wireless network.
