C9105AXI-H Description
C9105AXI-H is a Cisco Catalyst 9105 Series indoor Wi-Fi 6 access point with internal antennas for controller-based wireless access. It represents the C9105AXI model in the -H regulatory domain and supports dual-band 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz operation, a 2x2:2 MU-MIMO radio profile, and one 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet uplink. Cisco documentation also identifies the C9105AXI platform with 802.3af PoE or 802.3at PoE+ power options, compact 5.9 x 5.9 x 1.18 in. dimensions, and deployment through compatible Cisco wireless controllers for small-office, branch, and indoor campus WLAN coverage.

Application Scenarios
C9105AXI-H fits Catalyst 9105AXI projects where the installation country requires the -H regulatory-domain order path and the design needs the internal-antenna AXI form factor.
Use this SKU for indoor branch or compact campus coverage when the WLAN design uses Cisco controller discovery and a 1G PoE access-switch port for the access point uplink.
C9105AXI-H belongs in ceiling-oriented AXI deployments that do not require the wall-plate downlink Ethernet ports associated with the C9105AXW order family.

Primary order check |

AXI PID with Embedded Wireless Controller image |
Wall-plate AP order path with LAN downlink ports |
- In a C9105AXI-H vs C9105AXI-EWC-H comparison, the important difference is the software-image order path: C9105AXI-H follows the standard C9105AXI-x family, while C9105AXI-EWC-H is Cisco’s Embedded Wireless Controller variant.
- The C9105AXI-H vs C9105AXW-H difference is physical deployment and Ethernet layout; C9105AXI-H is the AXI access point path with a 1G PoE uplink, while C9105AXW-H is the wall-plate family with LAN downlink ports.
- For buyers comparing C9105AXI-H with either H-suffix alternative, which model to choose should be tied to controller architecture, wall-plate port requirements, and the installation country’s regulatory-domain approval.
Selection Guide
1. Validate -H country approval first
Choose C9105AXI-H only when the project country maps to the -H regulatory domain through Cisco compliance resources.
2. Separate standard AXI from EWC
Keep C9105AXI-H on the BOM when the design uses a supported Cisco wireless controller; use C9105AXI-EWC-H only when the order explicitly calls for the embedded controller image.
3. Avoid wall-plate substitution
Select C9105AXW-H only when the site needs a wall-plate AP with LAN downlink ports and the different uplink profile shown in Cisco specifications.
4. Check power and join readiness together
Confirm an 802.3af or 802.3at PoE source and supported controller release before releasing the AP line item for quote review.
Ordering Checklist
|
Procurement Area |
Required Check |
Risk Controlled |
|---|---|---|
|
Regulatory-domain suffix |
Confirm the -H suffix through Cisco compliance resources for the deployment country |
The x in C9105AXI-x is a regulatory-domain placeholder and cannot be swapped casually |
|
Standard versus EWC PID |
Decide whether the BOM needs C9105AXI-H or C9105AXI-EWC-H |
The EWC version is a separate Cisco order family with a different software-image path |
|
Controller baseline |
Verify Cisco Unified Wireless Network or Cisco IOS XE controller software support |
The access point must join a supported Cisco controller before serving WLAN clients |
|
PoE source |
Confirm 802.3af or 802.3at power from a switch port or Cisco injector |
The AXI model receives power through the Ethernet uplink |
|
Mounting path |
Confirm AIR-AP-BRACKET-8 and the required ceiling clip or adapter |
The AXI mounting plan differs from the C9105AXW wall-plate order path |
