Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Small Business 100 Series Wireless Access Points

Cisco SMB 150 Series Wireless Access Points were sized through a Site Survey and installed in select administrative buildings to create a reliable WLAN network for staff and patient use. It's a job that took almost three months to scale with the Site Survey, and then the company bought and installed it in the buildings. We have been using it for more than one year to access the internet using mobile devices, notebooks, and desktops with Wi-Fi bundle. The Wireless network arrived to create the mobility scenario and offer users access to the internet while waiting for their medical appointments at the clinics.

Pros

  • One of the benefits was creating a wireless network for employees and another for the company's patients.
  • The creation of the visitor network was very well thought out. We create an exclusive vlan separate from the internal network that provides internet to the patient at a reduced speed.
  • We use a physical controller, but this WAP150 Access Point can manage a clustered mini-network.
  • Works at gigabit speed using 802.11ac protocol.

Cons

  • I see that this model does not have the ability to mitigate strong interference at 2.4 GHz.
  • It is a model that does not serve auditors.
  • Sustainable AP.
  • Economic AP.
  • AP with high gigabit thoughput rates.
  • Compact and indoor AP.
  • Ability to cluster with other hardware.
  • 11ac.
  • 1X.
  • Flexible internet access using 2.4 and 5Ghz and with good coverage.
  • Lifetime Unlimited Warranty.

Would you buy Cisco Small Business 100 Series Wireless Access Points again?

Yes

As an IT technician I was involved in the deployment and configuration of some access points. Work was easy to attach it to the ceiling and connect to the CAT6A network cable. The controller located in the main building transmits all settings remotely in less than 15 minutes to the access point and it is already operational. The WAP 150 has a compact style and looks great on the ceiling because the antennas are internal and radiate omnidirectionally to users. We created three networks, one 2.4Ghz, the second 5Ghz and the other exclusively for patients.
