Cisco (IW9165E-Z-WGB) IW9165 11ax 6E 4 RF ports Z domain WGB SW Version

The Catalyst IW9165 Series addresses the growing need for reliable client wireless connectivity to missioncritical applications as organizations automate processes and operations. It comes with two 2×2 radios, features an industrial design, and is packed with advanced features.

The Catalyst IW9165 Series supports multiple operating modes:

• Cisco Ultra-Reliable Wireless Backhaul (URWB) software, which delivers high availability, low latency, and zero packet loss with seamless handoffs. URWB is ideal for connecting moving assets or extending your network where running fiber isn't feasible or affordable.
• Wi-Fi AP mode, to extend Wi-Fi 6/6E to more places where small form factor is important, like inside cabinets, or to easily provide coverage in the outdoors with a compact design.
• Catalyst IW9165E can also operate as a Wi-Fi client in Workgroup Bridge (WGB) mode, which allows you to connect operation-critical assets to your existing Wi-Fi infrastructure reliably.

The Catalyst IW9165 Series is designed to take advantage of the 6 GHz band expansion to deliver a network that is more reliable and secure, with higher throughput, more capacity, and less device interference. Support for the 6 GHz band will be available with a future software upgrade and is subject to approvals and regulations by each country's regulatory agencies for the use of the 6 GHz spectrum by standard outdoor power devices. Please refer to the Wi-Fi 6E white paper for more details on 6 GHz.

The Catalyst IW9165 Series comes in two models:

Cisco Catalyst IW9165E Rugged Access Point and Wireless Client

The Catalyst IW9165E is designed to add ultra-reliable wireless connectivity to moving vehicles and machines. Its compact form factor makes it very simple to integrate into industrial assets. It can operate in WGB, URWB and Wi-Fi AP mode to enable any use case and leverage the existing wireless environment.

The Catalyst IW9165E supports WGB mode, which allows it to connect to a Cisco access point infrastructure, and Universal WGB (uWGB) mode, which allows it to connect to a third-party access point infrastructure. Both of these modes help bridge the wired clients that are behind the WGB to the access point on the infrastructure side.

Low power consumption, rugged IP30 design, small form factor, and DIN rail mount capabilities make the Catalyst IW9165E an ideal product operating as a wireless client for automated guided vehicle (AGV) and Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) deployments, or as a Wi-Fi AP to be installed in cabinets and other places where size is a limiting factor. An M12 adapter and rail certifications make the Catalyst IW9165E a preferred choice for onboard train deployments as well.
