Features (cont’d)
Voice and video optimization
Industry standard QoS features are built-in and easy to configure.
Wireless Multi Media (WMM) access categories, 802.1p, and DSCP
standards support all ensure important applications get prioritized
correctly, not only on the MR45, but on other devices in the network.
Unscheduled Automatic Power Save Delivery (U-APSD) and new
Target Wait Time features in 802.11ax clients ensure minimal battery
drain on wireless VoIP phones.
Self-configuring, self-maintaining, always up-to-date
When plugged in, the MR45 automatically connects to the Meraki
cloud, downloads its configuration, and joins the appropriate
network. If new firmware is required, this is retrieved by the AP and
updated automatically. This ensures the network is kept up-to-date
with bug fixes, security updates, and new features.
Advanced analytics
Wireless Health is a tool integrated within the Meraki Dashboard to
offer powerful heuristics for smarter troubleshooting of customer
networks. Drilling down into the details of network usage provides
highly granular traffic analytics. Visibility into the physical world can
be enhanced with journey tracking through location analytics. Visitor
numbers, dwell time, repeat visit rates, and track trends can all be
easily monitored in the dashboard and deeper analysis is enabled
with raw data available via simple APIs.
