Enhance your small-to-midsize business with fast and reliable Wi-Fi connections by connecting the Cisco Business 240AC Dual-Band Wireless Access Point 3-Packto your compatible network router or switch. This kit includes three dual-band 802.11ac Wave 2 access points, each of which can be discreetly mounted onto a wall or ceiling to transfer data at up to 2333 Mb/s over the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequencies. Both of the 240AC's Gigabit Ethernet ports support 802.3af/at power over Ethernet, allowing you to transfer both data and power over a single cable, which can be passed through to IP cameras and other devices when connected to a compatible switch. Alternatively, you can power the access point with a separately purchased PoE injector. Up to 50 (25 recommended) access points can be used to create a mesh network that operate using a single network ID (SSID) and password. Each 240AC access point also supports up to 25 Cisco Business mesh extenders to maximize coverage, providing users with smooth experiences as they browse the internet, watch videos, and more while moving from one location to another. Use the Cisco Business mobile app to configure, manage, and monitor your network and its connected devices.

With its powerful internal omnidirectional antennas and support for 4x4 MU-MIMO and beamforming technologies, the Cisco Business 140AC can communicate with multiple devices simultaneously, transferring up to 1733 Mb/s over the 5 GHz frequency and 600 Mb/s on the 2.4 GHz band. Each access point can also handle up to 400 clients with up to 1000 clients in a system.

Your wireless network is protected by WPA/WPA2 encryption with WPA3 support coming in a future update. Other security features include RADIUS authentication, support for up to 16 VLANs, and guest network logins that can be authenticated against Google and Facebook.

With the Cisco Business mobile app for Android and iOS, you can quickly expand your network by using Quick Response (QR) codes to add new mesh extenders and devices. You can also use the app to monitor network usage, traffic patterns, and network throughput to help ensure optimal user experiences.

You can attach the Cisco Business 240AC access point to a wall or ceiling using the included hardware.

[Access Point] Quality and performance at a great price. These units outperform the big boys at a far better price. I installed 4 of these to provide Wi-Fi at our hotel. We can have all guests connected and streaming, with no complaints. 5

[Yes] I’ve used various Omada access points over the years. The 200 series are great budget conscious models still. They may not be WiFi 6 or 7, but they get the job done and do it reliably. If you don’t need to be pushing gigabit over WiFi, and just need the basics, this one works great! 5

Roger	07/07/2024
[400] I have used many Netgear products and I trust their devices to perform well. This access point can be used on a desktop, or it can be mounted to a wall or ceiling. It is extremely easy to configure, and delivers a strong signal. I am very pleased with it. 5

[1 GB] I absolutely love Meraki Products and that doesn't change with the Meraki Go line of products. The Meraki Go Lineup combines the affordability of consumer products and the experince of Meraki's enterprise Hardware. Setup was painless with the guidance of the Meraki Go app. If you have used any of the Meraki enterprise products, Meraki Go is very much simiar with a smaller and more digestable feature set making it very friendly for even the least tech savvy. 5

[Access Point] Took out my wifi router, (don't use the service-supplied internal, didn't really need the extra router, and it was ancient-old) and replaced it with this. I'm using it @ home. We just added 2 new units, equipped with WiFi 6e. Wow - you can't tell if it's plugged into the ethernet cable or WiFi. Once set up, it does a great job & is fully configurable (with the separate controller). MAC Filtering, latest security modes, all work well. Coverage (inside, 2nd floor, pointed down) gives huge full-house, plus full-yard coverage. Pleased with the change. 5

[4 to 5 dBi] Arrived fast and works just the same. Oddly, my controller was saying it was V3 which I didn't think was a thing but oh well. It works. 5

Enrique	03/06/2024
[20 to 23 dBm] First of all the shipping was super fast and free! The EAP610 is easy to setup if your network switches are POE there’s no need to use the supplied power adapter . I purchased a total of five units. (EAP610) and I was able to connect four of them without the need of the power supply, one of my ethernet cables was coming from a non-POE switch, so I easily installed it with the supplied power supply. All the instructions for set up are easy to read and understand. The equipment has perform flawlessly and without any issues so far. 5

[WPA, WPA2] I'm using this access point to cover a one bedroom apartment, about 700sqft or so. I have both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz networks under the same SSID, and all devices are using 5Ghz as expected. This means bandsteering is working well. No problems with around 10 devices in a small home. With a fiber internet connection, I get these real-world speeds on an iPhone 12: - 600-700mbps within line of sight in the same room. - 500-600mbps on the other side of the wall. - 400-500mbps everywhere else, such as through kitchen appliances and a wall, or through two walls and glass shower door. Upload speed in these tests is approx 100mbps slower than download in every category. (e.g. if I'm getting 700mbps download, upload is around 600. If my download is 450, upload is 350.) I have two minor cons: - The configuration in the app without a controller is very minimal. Thankfully, I don't need it, but expect to install a controller if you need advanced features. In the iOS app using it as a standalone AP, you can only configure some basic radio power/channel settings, along with SSID. - It gets relatively hot in use. This is normal for network gear so it's not problematic, but worth mentioning. I have no issues using this for a small household with multiple devices at the same time. Great performance, no drops. Highly recommended! 5
