Perfect for the teleworker or for a micro-branch deployment, this easy-to-install series of Office Extend access points provides secure wired and wireless access for organizations with employees who work from home.



The Cisco Aironet 1815t Series Access Points (Figure 1) offer a highly secure enterprise wired and wireless connection to the home, micro-branch, or any type of remote sites. No longer will geography or the elements play a role in delaying productivity, as the 1815t Series extends the corporate network to teleworkers, mobile workers, and even micro-sites. The access points connect to the home or on-site broadband Internet access and establish a highly secure tunnel to the corporate network. This tunnel allows remote employees access to data, voice, video, and cloud services for a network experience consistent with that at the corporate office. The 1815t Series supports highly secure access to corporate data and personal connectivity for teleworkers’ home devices, with segmented home traffic.



The Cisco Aironet 1815t Series helps improve workforce productivity, business resiliency, and job flexibility while reducing travel costs and carbon emissions. The 1815t Series targets commercial, enterprise, and service provider networks across all industries. Employees who need reliable and consistent access to networked business services at home, and micro-branches where remote workers require the same network connectivity as at the corporate site, are both excellent candidates for the 1815t Series.

In recent years corporate users have increasingly preferred wireless access as their form of network connectivity, due to its convenience. With this shift, there is an expectation that wireless should not slow down users’ day-to-day work, but should enable a high-performance experience. The 1815t Series delivers industry-leading performance, with highly secure and reliable wireless connections that provide a robust, mobile end-user experience.



Increased Wireless Performance

The Aironet 1815t Series supports the latest 802.11ac Wave 2 standard for higher performance, greater access, and higher-density networks. With simultaneous dual radios and dual band with 802.11ac Wave 2 MU-MIMO functionality, this access point can handle the increasing number of high-bandwidth devices that will soon become a common part of the network.



Wired Access

The 1815t Series allows wired access via a single RJ-45 10/100/1000 auto detection port. The access points come with three local Gigabit Ethernet ports and one uplink Gigabit Ethernet port, allowing for a variety of connections.



Mounting

The 1815t Series can be configured at the corporate office and shipped, for a simple install at the remote office. The integrated antennas optimize wireless coverage when resting on a desk.
