The AP822 catalyzes the migration to Gigabit Wi-Fi 
by bringing the power of enterprise-wide, full 
channel 802.11ac to more customers. The AP822 is 
a cost-effective solution designed to meet the mid-
range performance requirements of offices, schools, 
universities, hospitals, hotels, and retail stores, and it 
supports up to an aggregate 1.17 Gbps data rate for 
the most demanding business applications such as 
video and voice. 

The AP822 is positioned to accelerate the adoption of 
802.11ac into more cost-sensitive market segments. 
For schools, this means a more cost-effective 
solution can be deployed to meet the growing 
throughput demand from on-campus wireless 
devices. Hotels can more easily offer a richer Wi-Fi 
experience where availability of high-quality wireless 
services is often the primary criterion—above other 
amenities—for making reservations. Providing high-
speed, high-capacity wireless LAN services for the 
small and medium business is now more attainable 
with the AP822.

The AP822 access point allows administrators to 
prioritize applications to improve the user experience 
based on Meru’s unique ability to associate specific 
applications with deployed channel layers. For 
schools, this means Learning Management System 
applications can be assigned to one dedicated 
channel layer, while online classroom video feeds 

can be dedicated to another channel layer. For 
healthcare, life-critical applications such as patient 
monitoring can be assigned to one channel layer, 
doctor and nursing applications can be assigned to a 
second layer, and patient applications can be placed 
on a third channel layer. 

Meru’s single-channel option within the MobileFLEX 
architecture uniquely allows the AP822 to support 
wide Wi-Fi channels in real-world deployments, 
effectively doubling the data rate over 802.11n 
and dramatically increasing throughput for 
Meru customers. The 2x2:2 spatial stream design 
provides very high throughput (VHT) data rates 
for the majority of tablets and smartphones, at a 
competitive price. Additionally, customer feedback 
has indicated up to a 40% increase in performance 
with legacy 802.11n devices because of the hardware 
design benefits of 802.11ac. The AP822 also provides 
unique roaming support. Meru’s patented Air Traffic 
Control

®

 technology enables the network to control 

client roams, resulting in the industry’s lowest 
roaming latency figures—a true zero-handoff.  

Like other Meru access points, the AP822 integrates 
seamlessly with our E(z)RF

®

 Application Suite, 

Identity Manager (IDM), and other application 
solutions to bring intelligent management and 
resilient wireless services to your network.
