The Cisco Wireless 9172 Series Wi-Fi 7 access points are high-performance wireless solutions designed for environments like boutique hotels, healthcare clinics, retail stores, student housing, and distributed business locations such as regional branches and logistics hubs. With tri-radio functionality across 2.4-GHz, 5-GHz, and 6-GHz bands, the 9172 Series provides reliable, high-speed connectivity (frame rate up to 9000 Mbps) for spaces with low to moderate device density. Flexible deployment options-cloud, on-premises, or hybrid-allow seamless integration into existing networks.
The 9172I model supports flexible configurations, including a high-density 4x4 radio option for 5 GHz when the 6-GHz band is disabled, making it ideal for retail, healthcare, and branch office use. Both models feature plug and-play setup with mount compatibility for quick and efficient deployment.
For customers, the 9172 Series delivers reliable Wi-Fi 7 performance, enabling advanced applications like IoT integration, telehealth, and seamless customer experiences. The primary business benefit is future-ready connectivity with energy efficiency, reducing power consumption while supporting evolving network demands. This makes the 9172 Series a cornerstone for modernizing and optimizing network infrastructure.
