Cisco Catalyst 9105 Series
Your business doesn't stand still, and neither should your network. In a world of hybrid work, countless IoT devices, and bandwidth-hungry applications, your wireless infrastructure is the critical backbone of productivity. Standard Wi-Fi can't keep up with these demands, leading to frustrating lag, security vulnerabilities, and a poor user experience for your team and customers.
Step into the future of connectivity with the Cisco Catalyst 9105 Series Access Points. Engineered for the new era of work, these compact yet powerful APs bring the speed, intelligence, and rock-solid security of Wi-Fi 6 to any environment. Whether you're outfitting a high-density corporate office in Dubai, a hotel, or empowering your remote workforce across the UAE, the Catalyst 9105 series provides a seamless, enterprise-class experience that just works.
Don't let the sleek, compact design fool you. The Cisco Catalyst 9105 Series is a versatile workhorse, designed to extend Cisco's intent-based networking to businesses of all sizes. Built on the Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) standard, it goes beyond just speed, incorporating advanced technologies like OFDMA and MU-MIMO to dramatically improve efficiency and reduce latency in crowded wireless environments. This means a more predictable, reliable experience for everything from 4K video conferencing to critical business applications.
With multiple form factors, including a discreet wall plate model (C9105AXW) perfect for hospitality and residence halls, and a flexible indoor model (C9105AXI) for desk or ceiling mounting, there’s a perfect fit for any deployment. When managed with Cisco DNA Center, these access points unlock a new level of network intelligence, offering deep analytics, automated threat detection, and simplified management that turns your network from a utility into a strategic business asset.

Q: What is the main benefit of Wi-Fi 6 in the Catalyst 9105 Series?
A: The primary benefit is vastly improved efficiency in crowded environments. Technologies like OFDMA allow the access point to talk to multiple devices at once, slashing latency and making the network feel faster for everyone, even when many users are connected.

Q: Which Catalyst 9105 model is right for my business?
A: It depends on your use case. The C9105AXI is a versatile indoor model for general office use (desk or ceiling mount). The C9105AXW is a wall plate model specifically designed for in-room deployments like hotels, dorms, or hospitals, as it provides both Wi-Fi and wired ports.

Q: Can these access points securely support my remote workers?
A: Absolutely. The Catalyst 9105 is perfect for teleworker deployments. Its small size, low power consumption, and enterprise-grade security features allow you to extend your corporate network securely to any home office, ensuring your data and employees are protected. We can help you design a secure and scalable remote work solution.
Q: I'm concerned about the growing number of IoT devices on my network. Can the 9105 handle it?
A: Yes, it's designed for it. Features like Target Wake Time (TWT) help conserve battery life on IoT devices, while the integrated Bluetooth (BLE 5) radio and application hosting capabilities provide a platform for advanced IoT use cases. To understand how to build a future-proof network for IoT, get in touch with our team.
Q: Do I need to buy a separate physical wireless controller?
A: Not necessarily. For smaller deployments, the C9105AXI-EWC model comes with a Cisco Embedded Wireless Controller built-in, offering a simple, appliance-free management solution. As your needs grow, it's easy to migrate to a larger controller-based architecture. Nexus ITX can advise you on the most cost-effective management strategy for your business.
Q: Our office uses a lot of Apple MacBooks and iPhones. Are these APs optimized for them?
A: Yes. The Catalyst 9105 series supports the Apple Fast Lane feature, a unique collaboration between Cisco and Apple. This prioritizes business-critical applications on iOS and macOS devices and provides a more seamless roaming experience, ensuring your Apple users have the best possible performance on the network.
