Meraki Outdoor Access Point | Cloud Managed | Dual Band | 802.11ac | Wave 2 | 2x2 MU-MIMO | Unclaimed | Lifetime Warranty | MR74-HW

The Meraki MR74 is a four-radio, cloud-managed 2x2 MIMO 802.11ac Wave 2 access point The MR74 provides a maximum of 1.3 Gbps* aggregate frame rate with concurrent 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radios. A dedicated third radio provides real-time WIDS/WIPS with automated RF optimization, and a fourth integrated radio delivers Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) scanning and Beaconing.

The MR74 access point is an ideal cloud-managed solution for general purpose, next-generation deployments in harsh outdoor locations and industrial indoor conditions.

Mounting bracket included

Features:

• Dual-radio aggregate data rate of up to 1.3 Gbps* - An 867 Gbps 5 GHz 2x2:2 802.11ac radio and a 400 Mbps 2.4 GHz radio offer a combined aggregate dual-band throughput of 1.3 Gbps. Technologies like transmit beamforming and enhanced receive sensitivity allow the MR74 to support a higher client density than typical enterprise-class outdoor access points, resulting in fewer required APs for a given deployment. Band steering further enhances overall throughput, moving 5 GHz-capable clients to the 5 GHz radio and maximizing capacity in the 2.4 GHz range for older 802.11b/g clients.
• Rugged Industrial Design - The MR74 is designed and tested for salt spray, vibration, extreme thermal conditions, shock and dust and is IP67-rated, making it ideal for extreme environments. Despite its rugged design, MR74 has a low profile and is easy to deploy.
• Multi User Multiple Input Multiple Output (MU-MIMO) - The MR74 offers MU-MIMO (an 802.11ac Wave 2 standard) for efficient transmission to multiple clients. Especially suited for environments with numerous mobile devices, MU-MIMO enables multiple clients to receive data simultaneously. This increases the total network performance and improves the end user experience.
• Bluetooth Low Energy Beacon and Scanning - An integrated fourth radio for Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) provides seamless deployment of BLE Beacon functionality and effortless visibility of BLE devices. The MR74 enables the next generation of location-aware applications while futureproofing your deployment, making it ready for any new customer engagement strategies.
• 24x7 wireless security and RF analytics - The MR74’s dedicated dual-band scanning and security radio continually assesses the environment, characterizing RF interference and automatically containing wireless threats like rogue access points. There’s no need to choose between wireless security, advanced RF analysis, and serving client data: a dedicated third radio means that all three occur in real-time, without any impact to client traffic or AP throughput.
• Integrated Enterprise Security and Guest Access - The MR74 features integrated, easy-to-use security technologies to provide secure connectivity for employees and guests alike. Advanced security features such as AES hardware-based encryption and WPA2-Enterprise authentication with 802.1X and Active Directory integration provide wire-like security while still being easy to configure. One-click guest isolation provides secure, Internet-only access for visitors.
• Application-aware traffic shaping - The MR74 includes an integrated layer 7 packet inspection, classification, and control engine, enabling you to set QoS policies based on traffic type. Prioritize your mission critical applications, while setting limits on recreational traffic, e.g., peer-to-peer and video streaming. Importantly, controls can be implemented per network, per SSID, per user group, or per individual user.
