5Configurations
The 1600 series access point contains two simultaneous dual-band radios, the 2.4-GHz and 5-GHz 802.11n MIMO radios, in controller-based mode and in cloud-based mode. The 1600 series access point configurations are:
•AIR-CAP1602E-x-K9 and AIR-SAP1602E-x-K9—controller-based mode, with two 2.4-GHz/5-GHz dual-band radios with up to 3 external dual-band dipole antennas
•AIR-CAP1602I-x-K9 and AIR-SAP1602I-x-K9—controller-based mode, with two 2.4-GHz/5-GHz dual-band radios, with integrated dual-band inverted-F antennas
•AIR-CLD1602I-x-K9—cloud-based mode, with two 2.4-GHz/5-GHz dual-band radios, with integrated dual-band inverted-F antennas
For information on the regulatory domains (shown as “x” in the model numbers) see “Regulatory Domains” section on page 6.
External Antennas
The 1602E models are configured with up to three external dual-band dipole antennas, and two 2.4-GHz/5-GHz dual-band radios. The radios and antennas support frequency bands 2400–2500 MHz and 5150–5850 MHz through a common dual-band RF interface. Features of the external dual-band dipole antennas are:
•Three RTNC antenna connectors on the top of the access point
•Three TX and three RX antennas
These antennas are supported on the 1602E:
Antenna Part Number | Antenna Type | Antenna Gain 2 GHz / 5 GHz |
