Cisco Aironet Active Sensor - Wi-Fi monitoring sensor - integrated - 2 dBi (for 2.4 GHz), 3 dBi (for 5 GHz)
- 802.11ac Wave 2 support
- Integrated Bluetooth 4.1
The Cisco Aironet Active Sensor is a compact network sensor designed to monitor your wireless network. With the Aironet Active Sensor, your IT department can simulate real-world client experiences so that it can validate wireless performance for critical venues and high-value locations such as conference halls and meeting rooms. Also, a scheduled test by the sensor helps make sure that your network can handle an influx of VIP clients so that they are able to have a smooth wireless experience free of drops and lag time. How does this device do all of this? Thanks to Cisco AirProbe, the Aironet Active Sensor can proactively test and accurately predict the user's experience. This means that your wireless network won't be caught short when an increased number of devices connect to the network. You'll already know how much bandwidth is available immediately before the event, and you can adjust accordingly. Not only does the Active Sensor brilliantly simulate and predict wireless performance, but it's also the perfect device for making sure that your network is running to its fullest potential. Using the Active Sensor, you can test your network with proactive monitoring capabilities. This capability allows you to learn about potential issues before it's too late.

802.11ac Wave 2 support
The Active Sensor can simulate clients that support 802.11ac Wave 2 and multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO). MU-MIMO allows simultaneous data transmission to multiple Wave 2 - capable clients to improve the client experience. Prior to MU-MIMO, 802.11n and 802.11ac Wave 1 access points could transmit data to only one client at a time. This was typically referred to as single-user MIMO (SU-MIMO). The Active Sensor can also simulate clients that are 802.11ac Wave 1 compliant.
