Cisco CW9177D - Internal Directional Outdoor Wi-Fi 7 tri-band access point

Cisco Part Number: CW9177D is a Cisco Internal Directional Outdoor Wi-Fi 7 tri-band access point

Cisco CW9177D Outdoor Wi-Fi 7 Access Point

The Cisco CW9177D is a high-performance outdoor Wi-Fi 7 access point designed to deliver reliable, high-capacity wireless connectivity in demanding environments. As part of the Cisco Wireless 9177 Series, the CW9177D combines tri-band Wi-Fi 7 technology with an integrated directional antenna design, making it particularly suitable for focused, long-range outdoor coverage.

With support for the 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz and 6 GHz bands and up to 12 spatial streams, the CW9177D provides the capacity and performance required for demanding deployments such as campuses, industrial sites, transport facilities, ports, stadiums and smart-city infrastructure.

Key Features

• Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) with advanced multi-link operation, OFDMA, 4096-QAM and up to 320 MHz channels on 6 GHz.
• Tri-radio, tri-band operation across 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz and 6 GHz, with support for up to 12 spatial streams.
• Integrated directional antennas providing focused wireless coverage with peak gains of up to 8 dBi on the 2.4 GHz and 6 GHz bands.
• 10G Multigigabit Ethernet and a 1/10G SFP/SFP+ interface provide flexible high-speed uplink options.
• IP66/IP67-rated hardened enclosure designed for demanding outdoor conditions.
• Integrated GNSS/GPS supports location-aware functionality, Automated Frequency Coordination (AFC) and intelligent regulatory-domain selection.
• Cisco CleanAir Pro provides advanced RF interference detection and classification across supported wireless bands.
• Bluetooth Low Energy 6.0 enables location-based applications including asset tracking, wayfinding and analytics.
• Cisco Ultra-Reliable Wireless Backhaul (URWB) can extend connectivity where wired infrastructure is impractical.

Designed for Demanding Outdoor Deployments

The CW9177D is built to operate in challenging environmental conditions, with an operating temperature range of up to -40°C to 65°C, protection against water and foreign-body ingress, corrosion resistance and wind resistance of up to 100 mph sustained winds. Its integrated accelerometer can also help verify the access point's installation orientation after deployment.

Flexible Network Management

The CW9177D supports Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controllers and can also be managed through Cisco Meraki cloud networking, providing flexibility for on-premises, cloud or hybrid deployments. With its combination of Wi-Fi 7 performance, directional coverage, high-speed connectivity and rugged outdoor construction, the Cisco CW9177D is an advanced solution for extending enterprise wireless networks beyond traditional indoor environments.
