Class 2 Zone 2 suggestions for Wireless Access Points

[john_of_rohanne]

Hi, I've been asked to source an AP for an ATEX environment. The AP specifically needs to be Zone 22, which I believe is Class 2 Zone 2.

I'm quite new with installing an AP in an ATEX environment, but I'm struggling to find an AP that isn't Class 1 Zone 2.

Any suggestions?

You can look in to IW6300, IW3700 or you can consider putting one of these AP's inside a enclosure with required certifications.

If you are looking for enclosures you may look for AccesTex or EXTRONICS

Seems that the enclosure is the way forward for this one. Thanks for sharing.

Does Cisco have partnership with extronics or do we need to approach them directly?

With extronics zone 1 enclosure, we can deploy an indoor lower cost WAP like 9115  instead of IW6300?
