C9105AXW-E Description
The C9105AXW-E is a Cisco Catalyst 9105AXW wall-plate Wi-Fi 6 access point with internal antennas for indoor rooms in European Community and EFTA countries. The access point has dual-band 2x2:2 MU-MIMO radios, one 100/1000/2500 Base-T uplink, three 10/100/1000 Base-T downlink ports and a maximum 802.11ax PHY rate of 1.488 Gbps. The 10.5W LAN1 PoE-out budget and the 4.5W USB output each need 802.3at input, and 802.3af input disables both.

Application Scenarios
In a hotel or dormitory room, the access point mounts on the wall plate or junction box and gives the guest Wi-Fi 6 plus wired ports for a TV or desktop through its three downlink ports.
A patient room can use the downlink ports for a bedside device and the radios for staff tablets, with the unit fed from a single 100/1000/2500 Base-T uplink.
Student housing can put one access point per room on the wall, powered by 802.3at so the LAN1 port can supply 10.5W to a small PoE device.

C9105AXW-E and C9105AXW-EWC-E share the wall-plate body with a 100/1000/2500 uplink and 3 x 10/100/1000 downlink ports, and differ in software: C9105AXW-EWC-E ships with the Embedded Wireless Controller image, so designs that need that image at purchase order it instead. C9105AXWT-E is Cisco’s teleworker order path, with cradle or cover kit scope. All three are 2×2:2 Wi-Fi 6 with the -E suffix, so radio and port layout do not separate them, and standard controller-based wall-plate rooms stay on C9105AXW-E.
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.
