The Cisco 6300 Series Embedded Services Access Points (ESW6300) are designed to bring reliable, high-performance wireless connectivity into challenging industrial environments and smart city infrastructures. By offering a compact, embeddable form factor, these access points allow organizations to integrate advanced wireless mesh networking directly into their existing hardware, such as light poles or industrial machinery, without the need for bulky external enclosures or complex mounting systems.

This series is built to support digital transformation in areas that were not originally designed for modern networking. By providing a flexible and scalable architecture, the ESW6300 ensures that businesses can deploy resilient wireless solutions that are both secure and easy to manage. Whether used for remote connectivity or as part of a larger industrial network, these devices provide the necessary infrastructure to support a wide range of IoT assets and mobile applications.

Product overview

The ESW6300 series utilizes 802.11ac Wave 2 technology to deliver robust connectivity, supported by Cisco DNA Assurance and the Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) for enhanced security and visibility. The hardware is highly versatile, featuring dual Power over Ethernet (PoE/PoE+) ports that allow the device to power and backhaul data from local IoT sensors, cameras, and tracking systems. Additionally, a USB-out port is included to facilitate custom integrations, making it a highly adaptable tool for specialized industrial requirements.

Beyond its physical design, the ESW6300 functions as a powerful mesh node or an advanced Workgroup Bridge (WGB). It supports various deployment modes, including Cisco FlexConnect for remote management and Bridge mode for areas lacking wired infrastructure. The series includes specific models such as the ESW-6300-CON-X-K9, available in both USB-enabled and USB-disabled configurations, ensuring that organizations can select the right hardware to meet their specific operational and security needs.

Features and benefits

  • 802.11ac Wave 2 Radio: Delivers high-speed data rates of up to 867 Mbps using 2x2 MIMO and two spatial streams for efficient performance.
  • Multiuser MIMO (MU-MIMO): Enables simultaneous data transmission to multiple clients, significantly improving the user experience compared to traditional single-user systems.
  • Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) Port: Provides support for optical fiber connectivity, which is essential for extending network reach to remote or isolated locations.
  • Dual PoE-out Ports: Allows the access point to act as a power source for connected IoT devices like IP cameras and sensors, simplifying cabling requirements.
  • Flexible Deployment Modes: Supports various configurations, including traditional access point, mesh networking, and Cisco Mobility Express for smaller networks without a physical controller.
  • Embeddable Design: The enclosure-free form factor allows for seamless integration into existing industrial assets, maintaining the aesthetic and structural integrity of the deployment site.
  • Advanced Security: Includes support for X.509 digital certificates, WPA2, 802.1X authentication, and VPN/IPsec pass-through to ensure data integrity and secure access.
  • Versatile Bridging: Offers FlexConnect, Bridge, and Flex+Bridge modes, providing the flexibility to maintain network control even in environments where wired backhaul is unavailable.
2019-11-18 :Updated

Embed pervasive wireless throughout your industrial assets and make your city intelligent with the Cisco 6300 Series Embedded Services Access Points (ESW6300). Flexible, scalable, and secure, the ESW6300 provides resilient wireless mesh solutions built directly into your own hardware or IT solutions.

Product overview

Cisco 6300 Series Embedded Services Access Points (ESW6300) integrate wireless mesh networking into heavy-industry and smart-city assets. Purpose-built with 802.11ac Wave 2, Cisco DNA Assurance, and Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE), the ESW6300 provides a dependable and secure connectivity solution in almost any work environment. Dual Power over Ethernet (PoE) and PoE+ ports provide power and downlink connectivity to smart connected devices and sensors, and a single USB-out port allows for custom integrations.

The ESW6300 offers a scalable and secure mesh architecture for high-performance Wi-Fi services, and can also serve as an advanced static or mobile Workgroup Bridge (WGB). Its embeddable form factor adds connectivity almost anywhere it can fit—without compromising aesthetics or requiring cumbersome mounting solutions.

Features and benefits

Table 1.ESW6300 access points features and benefits

Feature

Benefit

802.11ac Wave 2 radio

Provides up to 867-Mbps data rates with 2 x 2 Multiple-Input, Multiple-Output (MIMO) and up to two spatial streams.

Multiuser MIMO (MU-MIMO)

Allows transmission of data to multiple 802.11ac Wave 2-capable clients simultaneously to improve the client experience. Prior to the 802.11ac Wave 2 standard, access points could transmit data to only one client at a time, typically referred to as single-user MIMO.

Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) port

Supports optical, fiber-based network connectivity for remote locations.

Dual PoE-out

Send power to—and backhaul data directly from—local IoT assets, such as IP cameras, sensors, or tracking systems.

Flexible deployment modes

Allows for deployment in a variety of ways, including as traditional access points and in mesh networks. The access points can also be deployed with the Cisco Mobility Express Solution. This deployment is ideal for small to medium-sized networks that require 50 or fewer access points without a physical controller. All deployment modes are easy to set up and configure.

No enclosure

Enables deployment of the access point where it is needed. The 6300 Embedded Services Series easily integrates into larger hardware, like light poles, without disturbing the aesthetics of the area.

Flexible, embedded mesh networking

Cities and industrial environments were not designed for digital transformation. Flexibility is key to new connectivity deployments. Now you can remove constraints with the Cisco ESW6300. The embeddable form factor and wireless mesh capabilities allow for a myriad of successful deployment scenarios, without the requirement of cumbersome cabling. Create an expansive—and nearly invisible—network almost anywhere. You can configure the ESW6300 with:

●Cisco FlexConnect, a wireless solution for remote deployments. FlexConnect mode enables configuration and control of access points in a separate area through a WAN link, without having to deploy an additional controller.

●Bridge mode. The access point is configured to build a wireless mesh network where wired network cabling is not available.

●Flex+Bridge mode, which allows for both FlexConnect and Bridge mode to operate on the same access point.
