Summary
Report
Key findings and conclusions:
Cisco Aironet 3702i is 6x faster than Aruba AP-225 in a high
density test of 60 clients
Cisco High-Density Experience, a suite of Cisco features that
utilizes a purpose-built chipset with best-in-class RF
architecture, enabled superior performance and coverage for
802.11ac deployments
architecture, enabled superior performance and coverage for
802.11ac deployments
Aironet 3702i outperformed the Aruba AP-225 with both
802.3af and 802.3at power
Greater performance was demonstrated using 4x4:3 802.11ac
support and ClientLink 3.0 in rate versus range testing
AP3702i had minimal impact on 802.11ac throughput when
subjected to interference from another nearby AP transmitting

The Cisco Aironet 3702i delivered greater throughput than the Aruba AP-225 in
all 12 scenarios in multi-client performance testing. The difference in throughput
ranged from a low of 16.6% to one client to a high of 83.2% to the maximum
population, 60 clients supporting 2 or 3 spatial streams, shown here.

C
isco engaged Miercom to evaluate the performance of the
Aironet 3702i indoor wireless access point and the AP-225 from
Aruba Networks. Throughput/performance was tested to
Aironet 3702i indoor wireless access point and the AP-225 from
Aruba Networks. Throughput/performance was tested to
determine the impact of increased client devices, increased distance
and/or physical obstructions, RF interference from devices on the same
channel and functionality of operating with reduced power.
Cisco Aironet 3702i has built-in 802.11ac Wave 1 functionality as well
as 802.11n functionality. This AP has internal antennas and is
controller-based. As part of the 3700 Series, this model also includes:
