What should IT buyers consider when choosing Cisco Catalyst 9130?

Several factors should be considered when selecting the right Cisco Catalyst 9130 access point. 

Number of users and WLAN load
The higher the number of simultaneous clients, the more important technologies such as OFDMA and MU-MIMO become. The Cisco Catalyst 9130 Series was specifically designed for high-density environments. 

Power supply and switch compatibility 
Depending on the configuration, the access points require PoE+ or multigigabit switches. Existing infrastructure should therefore be reviewed before deployment. 

Management and licensing 
Cisco DNA Center is recommended for centralized management, automation and analytics. Businesses should evaluate the appropriate licensing models early in the planning process. 

Refurbished as a cost-efficient alternative 
Refurbished Cisco Catalyst 9130 models provide a cost-effective way to integrate modern Wi-Fi 6 technology into existing networks. Especially for larger rollouts, significant cost savings are possible.
