Cisco Catalyst 9136 Series
Is your wireless network struggling to keep up with the demands of 4K video, high-density collaboration, and a growing number of IoT devices? Legacy Wi-Fi congestion is a real barrier to productivity. The Cisco Catalyst 9136 Series isn't just an upgrade; it's a leap into the future of enterprise connectivity, designed to bridge the gap between wired and wireless performance.
Leveraging the power of Wi-Fi 6E, the Catalyst 9136 extends into the pristine 6-GHz spectrum, leaving interference and congestion behind. This means more capacity, blazing-fast speeds up to 10.2 Gbps, and the kind of rock-solid reliability that empowers modern, digital-first organizations in the UAE and across the globe. It's time to deliver an uncompromised wireless experience your business can count on.
The Cisco Catalyst 9136 Series is more than just a connection point; it's a smart, secure, and powerful platform for your network's future. Its sophisticated tri-radio architecture, featuring a formidable 8x8 radio for the 5-GHz band, is built to handle the most demanding high-density environments without breaking a sweat. Combined with dual 5G Multigigabit Ethernet ports, it ensures you have the high-speed, redundant uplink capacity to eliminate bottlenecks and guarantee always-on performance for your critical applications.
But performance is only part of the story. Cisco has integrated unique intelligence directly into the access point. Built-in environmental sensors monitor air quality, temperature, and humidity, providing valuable data for creating safer, smarter workplaces. Furthermore, with support for application hosting in containers, the Catalyst 9136 becomes a true edge computing device, simplifying IoT deployments and unlocking new possibilities for innovation right at the network edge.
Choosing the right hardware is only the first step.

Q: What is the main advantage of Wi-Fi 6E in the Cisco Catalyst 9136?
A: Wi-Fi 6E extends all the benefits of Wi-Fi 6 into a brand new, exclusive 6-GHz radio band. This acts like a private superhighway for your newest devices, free from the interference of older Wi-Fi gadgets. The result is dramatically higher speeds, lower latency, and more reliable performance. Our experts at Nexus ITX can assess if your environment is ready to leverage this game-changing technology.
Q: Is the Catalyst 9136 backward compatible with my older Wi-Fi devices?
A: Absolutely. The Catalyst 9136 is a tri-band access point, operating on the 2.4-GHz, 5-GHz, and 6-GHz bands simultaneously. Your older devices will connect seamlessly to the 2.4-GHz and 5-GHz bands, while your new Wi-Fi 6E-capable devices can take full advantage of the 6-GHz band, ensuring a smooth transition and optimal performance for all clients.
Q: What are the power and cabling requirements for the Catalyst 9136 Series?
A: To unlock its full potential, including the dual 5G Multigigabit ports, the Catalyst 9136 performs best with 802.3bt (UPOE) power over standard Category 5e (or better) cabling. It can also operate in reduced-functionality modes with 802.3at (PoE+). Planning your power infrastructure is crucial for a successful deployment. Contact Nexus ITX for a consultation on ensuring your network is ready.
Q: How does this access point integrate with my existing network management tools?
A: The Catalyst 9136 is designed to be managed by Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controllers and is deeply integrated with the Cisco DNA Center platform. This pairing unlocks powerful features like Intelligent Capture for advanced troubleshooting. Nexus ITX can help you integrate these APs into your current ecosystem or design a complete Cisco DNA solution from the ground up.
Q: What practical benefit do the integrated environmental sensors provide?
A: The sensors provide real-time data on air quality (TVOCs), temperature, and humidity directly from your network infrastructure. This eliminates the need for a separate, costly overlay sensor network. You can use this data to support smart building initiatives, ensure compliance with workplace safety standards, and create a healthier, more productive environment.
Q: We are based in the UAE. Can Nexus ITX help us with deployment and support?
