Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)‍ about Cisco Catalyst 9115 Series

Q: What is the main advantage of Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) in the Catalyst 9115 Series?

A: The primary advantage is efficiency and performance in crowded environments. While Wi-Fi 6 offers higher theoretical speeds, its real-world benefit comes from technologies like OFDMA and BSS Coloring, which allow the access point to communicate with multiple devices simultaneously and reduce interference. This results in lower latency and a more consistent experience for every user, even in a busy office or lecture hall. To see how this can transform your specific environment, we recommend a consultation with our NEXUS ITX network specialists.


Q: Can the Cisco Catalyst 9115 Series work with my existing network switches and cabling?

A: Absolutely. One of the key design features is its Multigigabit Ethernet port, which supports speeds up to 2.5 Gbps on standard Category 5e cabling. This means you can upgrade your wireless infrastructure to full Wi-Fi 6 performance without the significant cost and disruption of a complete cable overhaul. Our team can assess your current infrastructure to confirm compatibility and plan the most seamless upgrade path.


Q: What is the difference between the C9115AXI and C9115AXE models?

A: The main difference is the antenna type. The C9115AXI model comes with integrated internal antennas, making it perfect for most standard indoor deployments like offices and classrooms. The C9115AXE model features connectors for external antennas, providing greater flexibility for challenging environments like warehouses, large auditoriums, or areas requiring specialized coverage patterns. Contact NEXUS ITX, and our experts can help you select the precise model and antennas for your needs.


Q: Do I need a physical wireless controller to manage these access points?

A: Not necessarily. The Catalyst 9115 Series offers flexible management options. For larger, complex deployments, they integrate seamlessly with Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controllers. However, for smaller sites or simplified deployments, you can choose models with a Cisco Embedded Wireless Controller (EWC), which allows one access point to manage an entire network of APs without a separate physical appliance. Let us help you determine the most cost-effective management strategy for your organization.


Q: How does the Catalyst 9115 enhance security for my business?

A: Security is built-in, not bolted on. The series is founded on Cisco Trust Anchor Technologies, which validate the hardware and software to prevent tampering. It also supports the latest WPA3 security standard for robust Wi-Fi encryption. When paired with Cisco DNA, you can enable advanced threat detection, real-time analytics, and automated policy enforcement to protect your network from evolving threats.
