Three-Radio, Dual-Band, Outdoor/Rugged 802.11n Access Point

The MR58 is a state of the art, high-performance device that can be deployed in
a mesh with other MR58s, or as a system with other Mesh Access Points. The MR58
can extend Wi-Fi coverage across campuses, cities, or other large outdoor areas
for a fraction of the cost of traditional infrastructure. The MR58 is available
with the Enterprise
or Pro Cloud Controller.
Exceptional Performance Across Three 802.11n Radios
With three 802.11n radios, the MR58 delivers higher throughput to even heavy concentrations
of end users. Smart automatic frequency selection and optimization algorithms make
it possible to cover entire cities while automatically avoiding interference and
other slowdowns. By using advanced MIMO antenna technology and modulation selection
techniques, the MR58 can also drive weaker links at high data rates.
Cover Large Areas and Long Distances
With two radios dedicated to high-throughput mesh connections, the Meraki MR58 can
create very large mesh networks with up to 5 hops, little bandwidth degradation,
and using only a limited number of Internet connections. One, two, or all three
radios can be equipped with optional directional antenna accessories to create long
distance mesh links of up to 20 km with clear line of sight.
Deploys Fast
Flexible mounting kits and LED feedback make it quick to mount the MR58 on walls,
roofs, poles, towers, and other locations. The MR58 also detects an internet connection
automatically without any additional need for on-site configuration. Designed for
rugged deployments in outdoor or industrial settings, the MR58 is also the right
solution for large indoor areas with heavy demand for bandwidth.

High performance 802.11n network

The MR58 is an ideal solution for high-capacity, fast, and secure wireless
networks. To achieve maximum performance we recommend using only MR58s in your
network and have at least one MR58 connected to a high-bandwidth connection to
the internet.
|
|
Backhaul enhancement for large networks

The MR58 can improve the performance of large Meraki networks by providing
high-capacity backhaul to aggregate bandwidth and reduce the number of wired
Internet connections.
|
|
Long distance links

The MR58, with a high-gain directional antenna, is designed for applications
that require long distance and high-throughput.

5 GHz, 14 dBi, Sector Antenna, ANT-11
Designed for use with MR58 5 GHz radios.
The sector antenna can extend the range of an MR58 Access Point by focusing the
wireless signal in a specific direction; the best way to establish a medium
distance point-to-point wireless link.
Extended Range
The MR58 Directional antennas focus wireless signals in a particular direction
by creating a co-polarization pattern. Typically, you'll be able to extend the
reach of a radio by up to 2.5x in a particular direction.
Easy to Mount
The antenna comes with everything you need for a pole or wall mount, and is
suitable for indoor or outdoor use. 2 cables with N-Type connectors are
integrated with the antenna.
Improved Connectivity
The sector antenna improves the reach and connectivity of the Mesh network by
focusing and increasing signal strengths between MR58s.
