Cisco Aironet 1040 Series Access Points
The Cisco
entry-level 802.11n access point designed to address the wireless
connectivity needs of small and medium-sized enterprises.
Business Ready 802.11n Performance
With 2x2 multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology providing at least
six times the throughput of existing 802.11a/g networks, the Cisco Aironet
1040 Series offers the performance advantage of 802.11n enterprise-class
quality at an entry-level price for small and medium-sized enterprises.
As part of the Cisco Unified Wireless Network, the 1040 Series provides low
total cost of ownership and investment protection by integrating seamlessly
with the existing network.
RF Excellence
Building on the Cisco Aironet heritage of RF excellence, the 1040 Series
delivers secure and reliable wireless connections. Enterprise-class chipsets
and optimized radios deliver a robust mobility experience with:
Optimized antenna and radio designs: Consistent network transmit
●
and receive for optimized rate versus range
Radio resource management (RRM): Automated self-healing optimizes the unpredictability of RF to reduce
●
dead spots and help ensure high-availability client connections
Environmentally Responsible
Designed for sustainability, the Cisco Aironet 1040 Series offers 802.11n performance with standard 802.3af Power
over Ethernet (PoE). At only 12.95 watts of power, the 1040 Series combines the power of dual-radio 802.11n with
the efficiency of standard PoE. The sleek industrial design of the 1040 Series blends seamlessly into any indoor
enterprise environment.
For quicker staging and installation, you can order the 1040 Series in multiunit eco-packs, which offer 10 controller-
based or 5 standalone access points in a single, easy-to-open carton. Eco-packs reduce product packaging by 50
percent, preserving natural resources and reducing emissions. By eliminating unnecessary components and offering
digital instead of paper documentation, the 1040 Series eco-packs will save over 2200 trees per year, which is equal
to the amount of power required to heat over 65 homes for an entire year.
