Cisco CON-SW-ARAPIEK9 — Product Overview
CON-SW-ARAPIEK9 is a Cisco software license/upgrade (typically sold as a 1-year entitlement) for affected AIR-series access points. It provides entitlement to Cisco software upgrades and ongoing maintenance releases so your APs stay current with feature enhancements and bug fixes.
What's included
- Software upgrades: Entitlement to receive major and minor software releases during the license/term.
- Maintenance access: Access to Cisco’s online resources for downloads and documentation.
- Integration-friendly: Designed to fit into Cisco lifecycle and support workflows for AIR-series APs.
Key benefits
- Keep wireless infrastructure up to date with security patches and functional improvements.
- Reduce operational risk by standardizing on supported software builds.
- Simplifies budgeting — sold as discrete license terms (common configuration: 1 license, 1 year).
Who should consider this
- Enterprises and service providers running Cisco AIR access points who require predictable software maintenance and upgrade paths.
- Teams that want centralized software lifecycle control without adding hardware replacement entitlements.
Note: exact entitlements and SLA details can vary by SKU and reseller (software vs. SMARTnet/hardware support differ). Verify the SKU mapping for your specific AP model before purchase.
