Designed for general purpose deployments in businesses, education, healthcare, retail and hospitality environments, the MR42E provides performance, security, and manageability. The MR42E provides a maximum 1.5 Gbps frame rate with concurrent 802.11ac Wave 2 and 802.11n 3&#215;3:3 MIMO radios, and security and spectrum visibility via a third radio dedicated to 24&#215;7 WIDS\/WIPS and automated RF optimization. An integrated Bluetooth low energy (BLE) radio delivers Beacon functionality and BLE device scanning. The MR42E supports a variety of smart, auto-detectable external antenna that can deliver both focused, targeted coverage in challenging RF scenarios as well as broader coverage in a variety of environments, including those with very high ceilings. These antenna include panel and panel downtilt omni-directionals, wide patch, and narrow patch options. The combination of cloud management, 802.11ac Wave 2, full-time RF environment scanning, and an integrated Bluetooth technology delivers the high throughput, reliability, and flexibility required by the most demanding business applications like voice and high-definition streaming video, both today and tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Product Highlights<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2022 External antenna connectors\u00a0<strong>(antennas sold separately)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2022 3 x 3 MU-MIMO 802.11ac Wave 2<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 1.9 Gbps aggregate dual-band frame rate<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 24 x 7 real-time WIPS\/WIDS and spectrum analytics via dedicated third radio<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Integrated Bluetooth Low Energy Beacon and scanning radio<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Enhanced transmit power and receive sensitivity<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Full-time Wifi location tracking via dedicated 3rd radio<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Integrated enterprise security and guest access<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Application-aware traffic shaping<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Self-configuring, plug-and-play deployment<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Sleek, low-profile design blends into office environments<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Optimized for voice and video<\/p>\n<h2>License Details<\/h2>\n<div class=\"clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item\">\n<p>All Meraki products use the Meraki cloud for centralized management and control.
