About the MR57-HW
Two RJ45 uplinks, each running at 100M, 1G, 2.5G or 5G, are built into the MR57-HW. It is an indoor 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6E) access point with three 4×4 radios on 2.4, 5 and 6 GHz, internal omni antennas and a 7.78 Gbps aggregate frame rate, managed from the Meraki Dashboard.
Full power is 802.3bt PoE at up to 40 W with USB. On 30 W PoE+ it runs with USB disabled. A 54 V DC adapter is the other option, and the MA-PWR-50WAC and MA-INJ-6 are the power accessories that fit it.
The standard mounting hardware, the AIR-AP-BRACKET-2, is included, and the AIR-AP-BRACKET-1 also fits. It mounts on a desk, ceiling or wall and fits flush or recessed ceiling tile rails.
