C9105AXI-I Description
The C9105AXI-I is a Cisco Catalyst 9105AXI Series indoor access point with internal antennas and the -I regulatory-domain suffix, built for controller-managed Wi-Fi 6 in ceiling-mounted deployments. The access point has dual-band 2x2:2 MU-MIMO radios, a maximum 802.11ax PHY rate of 1.488 Gbps and one 10/100/1000 Base-T uplink, and it draws 11W at the powered device. The access point has no downlink LAN ports, runs on 802.3af or 802.3at PoE and works with Catalyst 9800 controllers.

Application Scenarios
A branch office can mount the access point on the ceiling and connect it to a single 802.3af switch port, which carries both power and client traffic over the 10/100/1000 Base-T uplink.
On a small campus floor, the access point replaces older Wi-Fi 5 units and joins a Catalyst 9800 or AireOS controller, using 2×2:2 MU-MIMO on both radios.
In an open office with a ceiling grid, the access point sits on the AIR-AP-BRACKET-8 low-profile bracket with T-rail clips, and its internal antennas cover the floor from above.

C9105AXI-I and C9105AXW-I share 2×2:2 Wi-Fi 6 radios and the -I suffix, but C9105AXI-I has one 10/100/1000 uplink and no downlink LAN ports, while C9105AXW-I is the wall-plate model with a 100/1000/2500 uplink and 3 x 10/100/1000 LAN ports. Rooms that need wired devices at the AP take C9105AXW-I. C9105AXI-E matches C9105AXI-I on every listed row except the regulatory suffix, so it is the model for -E countries and C9105AXI-I stays the order for -I countries.
Ordering Checklist
- Subscription: Order one LIC-CW-E (Essentials) or LIC-CW-A (Advantage) subscription per AP under Cisco Networking Subscription; unified licensing needs IOS XE 17.15.x or later. The controller boots without a license, but each joining AP needs its own subscription.
