Installation & Deployment Guidelines

• Mount the unit on pole, tower, rooftop, wall or appropriate outdoor mount

• Provide PoE power via Gigabit Ethernet uplink (PoE injector or switch)

• Due to internal antennas, ensure appropriate placement for optimum coverage and minimal obstruction

• Configure SSID, channel, bandwidth (20/40/80 MHz), security (WPA2/WPA3, encryption) as per deployment needs

• For large-scale network, consider wireless channel planning and interference management for stable performance

Note on Series Status

The 1560 Series (including AIR-AP1562I) is listed as End-of-Sale as of 31-Jan-2023 — but support (firmware updates, maintenance) remains until 31-Jan-2028. Cisco+1
For new deployments, you may consider newer Cisco series for longer future support, but AIR-AP1562I-K-K9 remains a proven and rugged solution for outdoor Wi-Fi/backhaul needs.
