By eliminating the extra power and network connections, which can be expensive to deploy and maintain in
hazardous locations, the 1552WU saves costs by reducing deployment times while offering a flexible, highly
secure, and scalable mesh network for high-performance wireless coverage for both Wi-Fi clients and
WirelessHART field instruments across large facilities. With all these benefits, the Cisco Aironet 1552WU Outdoor
Access Point can improve overall plant reliability, safety, and profitability.
The Cisco Aironet 1552WU Outdoor Access Point provides multiple device connectivity and network access
options to support use cases such as real-time seamless mobility, distributed control system connectivity, video
surveillance, 3G and 4G cellular data offload, and public and private Wi-Fi access. Designed to meet customer
needs in a broad range of industries, the Cisco Aironet 1552WU Outdoor Access Point offers the following
additional benefits:

Flexible, High-Performance Mesh
The Cisco Aironet 1552WU Outdoor Access Point offers a flexible, highly secure, and scalable mesh platform that
. It offers high-performance mobility across large oil and gas facilities,
mining, manufacturing, and process control applications.
The 1552WU provides high-performance device access through improved radio sensitivity and range with
802.11a/b/g/n multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology, including two spatial streams. Multiple uplink and
power options are available. The 802.3af-compliant, Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) interface makes it easy to connect
IP devices, such as IP video cameras. The housing is certified for Class 1, Div 2, and ATEX Zone 2 deployment
areas and provides a robust system that can withstand demanding, hazardous environments.
Cisco CleanAir Technology
As part of the Cisco Aironet 1550 Series with Cisco CleanAir technology, the 1552WU provides the highest-
performance 802.11n connectivity for mission-critical outdoor networks by detecting interference from unauthorized
devices, as well as common outdoor interference sources such as WiMAX networks and wireless bridging
products. The 1550 Series uses chip-level intelligence to create a spectrum-aware, self-healing, and self-optimizing
wireless network that mitigates the impact of wireless interference. Cisco CleanAir technology is a systemwide
feature of the Cisco Unified Wireless Network that improves wireless network quality by detecting RF interference
