Dual-concurrent, 3-stream MIMO radios Radios optimized for rate-vs-range performance

No Longer Available - Replaced by MR53

Ultra-high performance cloud-managed 802.11ac wireless

The Cisco Meraki MR34 is an industry-first three-radio, cloud-managed 3x3 MIMO 802.11ac access point. Designed for high-density next-generation deployments in large offices, schools, hospitals and hotels, the MR34 provides the highest performance, security, and manageability. The MR34 provides not only a blazing 1.75 Gbps throughput with concurrent 802.11ac and 802.11n 3x3:3 MIMO radios, but also unprecedented security and spectrum visibility via a third radio dedicated to 24x7 WIDS/WIPS and advanced RF analytics. The combination of cloud management, 802.11ac, and integrated full-time RF environment scanning delivers the ultra-high throughput and reliability required by the most demanding business applications like voice and high-definition streaming video, both today and tomorrow.
