Difference between AIR-CAP (A E K) Access Point model

[Mahmoudhbm]

Hello,

I am working now a days on Cisco Access Points, as you already know there are different products are available but what i don't understand is each model for example AIR-CAPXXXX-A or AIR-CAPXXXX-E or AIR-CAPXXXX-K

what does A, E, K mean?

Thank you very much for your answer.

Hi,

Regulatory domain should be same on AP and WLC for the radio network interface to come up.

If you have AP in -A- domain then you must set country code on WLC as USA(America.)

If you have -E- domain on AP then you must set any Europian country on wlc.

and If you have -K- domain on AP then you must set Korea country on wlc.

each country have their own regulation regarding wireless.

The difference between the A E K is the compliance for the region they are being used in.

To find the relevant code for your region use:
