  • Aggregate Throughput: Theoretical data rates up to 5.2 Gbps, enabling high-performance use cases and a smooth experience for bandwidth-intensive applications and multiple concurrent users.
  • Antenna and Coverage: Built-in, high-efficiency antennas designed to deliver reliable indoor coverage with strong signal quality and improved User Experience across office layouts and meeting spaces.
  • Security and Access Control: Enterprise-grade security features including WPA2-Enterprise, 802.1X authentication, RADIUS integration, and guest access with controlled policies to safeguard the network and data.
  • Power and Mounting: Supports Power over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af/at) for simplified installation and centralized power management; adaptable mounting options for ceiling or wall installation to suit room layouts and aesthetic requirements.

How to Install Cisco Aironet 2802E

  • Plan placement to maximize coverage and minimize interference. Identify central ceilings or walls in open work areas and near meeting rooms, and map surrounding devices and potential sources of radio frequency noise.
  • Connect to the network with PoE. Use a PoE-enabled switch or injector to provide power and data connectivity, ensuring the port supports 802.3at for optimal performance and reliability.
  • Adopt to a central controller or deploy with Mobility Express. For larger networks, configure the 2802E to join a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC); for smaller or standalone deployments, enable Mobility Express to create an on-site management instance.
  • Configure SSIDs, security settings, and access policies. Create enterprise-grade SSIDs with WPA2-Enterprise or other secure authentication methods, apply VLAN tagging as needed, and establish guest network access with captive portal controls where appropriate.
  • Validate performance and adjust coverage. Perform site surveys, monitor signal strength and interference, and fine-tune transmit power and channel assignments to optimize roaming, load balancing, and overall user experience.

Great quality jacket
On stage presentation in this jacket was fabulous. Great quality. He did have to buy a larger size to get the sleeve length but a tailor fixed the shoulder to a perfect fit. Will buy again in another color.

JUST LIKE THE PIC! Gold to black gradient! Perfect!
We bought black and gold, gradient, small. Son is 5’7”, 145lbs and this is perfect on him! Some people say it looks nothing like the pic, couple of the pics do look awry…and I almost didn’t make my purchase based on that pic! I am soooo glad I did, ours looks exactly like the pic with a nice gradient from gold to black. If you are turned away by the one not so great pic, I say buy it, ours is perfect just like the pic! Great fit! Awesome lapel! Love this jacket!

Terrible product
I have bought other sequin jackets from this brand that I absolutely LOVE ! The colors on all of them have always been a little off from the pictures but in a good way, they are more subtle beautiful hues and expensive designer looking. This jacket however is total trash! The colors are bright and obnoxious unlike the picture, and the quality is HORRIBLE! The fabric is so thin and stiff you can’t move at all in it, it feels like you’re trying to wear a cardboard jacket covered in cheap glitter that was glued on. I ordered the exact same size as the previous ones I’ve bought and this one I can’t even get the button to come close to closing, the sizing is very off and runs extremely small, while my other ones I have still fit perfectly so it isn’t me that has changed size.So disappointed because of how much I love my other ones, I really wanted to love this one too.
