Ideal for applications requiring rugged outdoor Wi-Fi coverage, the Cisco Aironet 1560 Series Access Points offer the IEEE 802.11ac Wave 2 radio standard in a compact, aesthetically pleasing, easy-to-deploy package. The 1560 Series offers flexible deployment options for service providers, enterprise networks, and public safety networks that need the fastest links possible for mobile, outdoor clients (smartphones, tablets, and laptops) and wireless backhaul. The 1560 Series Access Points give network operators the flexibility to balance their desired wireless coverage with their need for easy deployment.
802.11ac Wave 2 radio
Provides up to 1.3-Gbps data rates with 3 x 3 multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) and up to three spatial streams.
Multiuser MIMO
Allows transmission of data to multiple 802.11ac Wave 2-capable clients simultaneously to improve client experience; prior to 802.11ac Wave 2, access points could transmit data to only one client at a time, typically referred to as single-user MIMO.
Flexible deployment modes
Allows for deployment of the 1560 in a variety of ways including point-to-point and mesh networks; it can also be deployed with the Cisco Mobility Express Solution, which is ideal for small to medium-sized deployments that that require 25 or fewer access points without a physical controller; all deployment modes are easy to set up and configure.
Small form-factor pluggable port
Supports optical fiber-based network connectivity for remote locations.
