Cisco Meraki MR46E Technical Specifications

MR46E Wi-Fi 6 Performance

The MR46E provides concurrent 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz wireless connectivity using 4x4:4 MIMO radios. The 5 GHz radio supports up to 2.402 Gbps while the 2.4 GHz radio supports up to 574 Mbps, providing a maximum aggregate frame rate of up to 2.98 Gbps according to the detailed Meraki datasheet.

4x4 MU-MIMO and OFDMA

The MR46E supports Wi-Fi 6 technologies including uplink and downlink MU-MIMO, OFDMA, beamforming, BSS Coloring and Target Wake Time. These technologies improve spectrum efficiency and multi-client wireless performance in demanding enterprise environments.

Six External Antenna Ports

The MR46E is designed for flexible RF deployments using external antennas. It provides six external RP-TNC antenna ports and supports Meraki MA-ANT-3-A6 through MA-ANT-3-F6 antenna families.

Meraki identifies the A6 and B6 antenna types as omnidirectional options, while the C6 through F6 families provide directional coverage options. Antenna selection should be based on the intended coverage area and RF design.

Dedicated WIDS/WIPS and RF Analytics

A dedicated third radio provides continuous wireless intrusion detection and prevention, spectrum analysis and location analytics. This allows RF monitoring and security functions to operate without taking resources away from the primary client-serving radios.

Bluetooth Low Energy

The integrated BLE radio supports beaconing and Bluetooth scanning for compatible location-aware and IoT applications within the Cisco Meraki ecosystem.

2.5GbE Multigigabit Connectivity

The MR46E includes one 100/1000/2.5GBASE-T Ethernet port for high-speed network connectivity. The access point supports 802.3at PoE, with a maximum power consumption of approximately 30W under 802.3at operation.

Cisco Meraki Cloud Management

The MR46E is centrally managed through the Cisco Meraki Dashboard. Cloud management enables rapid deployment, centralized configuration, real-time monitoring, automatic firmware updates, alerts, RF optimization and remote troubleshooting.
