9130AXE Access point

Bhardwajp · ‎10-31-2023

Hi Team,

We purchase 9130 AXE access points however we have not ordered external antenna. Just want to know if 9130 AXE still work without external antenna like ANT9101=, C-ANT9102=, and C-ANT9103= or not.

If yes what will be disadvantage is there going to be range issues i want can i need to replace it with CAP3702E-E

The AP will work but will not broadcast any SSID.

Agreed - AP will broadcast SSIDs but coverage will be close to zero.
