The AP has four external antenna ports, an external
GNSS port and an internal GNSS antenna.
This is a stand-alone unit that can be wall or pole
mounted. It can also operate as a relay node for
other access points that are not directly connected
to a wired network.

AP for outdoor environments,
with external antennas
Using the AP's 6 GHz spectrum outdoors requires the Automatic Frequency Coordination (AFC) feature. The
AFC feature provides permitted power levels and frequencies for outdoor Wi-Fi 6E APs at the installed
location.
Note
You must verify whether the AP model you have is approved for use in your country. To verify approval and
to identify the regulatory domain that corresponds to a particular country, see
http://www.cisco.com/go/aironet/compliance. Not all regulatory domains have been approved. As and when
they are approved, the compliance list is updated.
Antennas and Radios
The CW9163E-x AP model has four N-type antenna ports supporting self-identifying antennas (SIA), non-SIA
antennas, and a GNSS antenna supporting SubMiniature version A (SMA) male port.
• CW-ANT-O1-NS-00: These are omnidirectional antennas recommended for 360-degree radio coverage.
• CW-ANT-GPS2-S-00: An L1/L5 band GNSS optimizing antenna to enhance location precision for
Standard Power AFC requirements.
For more information about the supported antennas and the radio bands they operate at, see the Supported
External Antennas section.
