Cisco MA-ANT-21

Overview

The Cisco MA-ANT-21 is a 5 GHz sector antenna designed to extend wireless coverage with a focused directional signal. Offering 13 dBi of gain and a 2x2 MIMO configuration, it enhances the range and capacity of Meraki access points, making it easier to maintain strong connections in outdoor environments such as courtyards, parking lots, and campus walkways. Its weather-resistant housing and straightforward mounting options ensure reliable performance in various settings.

Key features

• 13 dBi gain that extends the effective range of 5 GHz Wi-Fi signals for better outdoor coverage
• 2x2 MIMO technology that improves throughput and link reliability by using multiple antennas simultaneously
• Directional sector pattern that concentrates the signal on a specific area, reducing interference and signal spillover
• Direct connection to Meraki access points via two N-type connectors, eliminating the need for special adapters or cables
• Compact and durable design built to withstand outdoor conditions, including weather exposure
• Flexible mounting options with included brackets for wall or pole installation, allowing precise aiming of the antenna

Key specs

• Frequency range: 5.150 GHz to 5.875 GHz
• Gain: 13 dBi
• MIMO configuration: 2x2
• Connectors: Two N-type connectors for direct access point connection
• Mounting: Wall or pole mount with included brackets
• Housing: Weather-resistant for outdoor use

Connectivity and compatibility

This antenna is specifically designed to work seamlessly with compatible Cisco Meraki access points, connecting directly through N-type connectors. This direct interface simplifies installation and ensures optimal signal transfer without additional adapters. Its frequency range covers the entire 5 GHz band used by most modern Wi-Fi networks, making it suitable for a variety of outdoor wireless deployments.

Ideal uses and environments

The MA-ANT-21 is well suited for enterprise campuses, schools, municipal Wi-Fi networks, and outdoor hospitality venues where targeted wireless coverage is essential. It excels in lighting up defined outdoor areas such as parking lots, courtyards, and walkways without causing interference in adjacent spaces. Additionally, it supports short backhaul links between fixed points like rooftops, maintaining strong throughput even in crowded wireless environments.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
