C9105AXW-E Description
C9105AXW-E is a Cisco Catalyst 9105AXW wall-plate Wi-Fi 6 access point for indoor rooms that need wireless coverage and local Ethernet breakout from one wall-mounted unit. The E regulatory-domain model is listed in Cisco European Community and EFTA records, uses a controller-based C9105AXW deployment model, and supports Cisco Unified Wireless Network 8.10MR3 or Cisco IOS XE 17.3.1 or later. It provides dual-band dual-concurrent 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radios with 2x2:2 SS MU-MIMO, internal antennas, one 100/1000/2500 Base-T uplink, three 10/100/1000 Base-T downlink ports, and PoE input from an 802.3af or 802.3at switch port or supported Cisco injector.

Application Scenarios
C9105AXW-E fits Catalyst 9105AXW projects where the installation country requires Cisco’s -E regulatory-domain listing and the site needs the AXW wall-plate form factor.
Use this SKU when a room design needs Wi-Fi 6 coverage plus wired downlink ports from the same wall-mounted AP instead of a ceiling-oriented AXI access point.
C9105AXW-E suits WLAN refresh work where the access point will join a supported Cisco wireless controller and use a 100/1000/2500 Base-T uplink from the access switch.

Order distinction |
Standard controller-based AXW PID |
AXW PID with Embedded Wireless Controller software image |
Teleworker order path with cradle or cover kit scope |
- In a C9105AXW-E vs C9105AXW-EWC-E comparison, the hardware family and -E suffix align, while the main difference is the Embedded Wireless Controller software-image order path.
- The C9105AXW-E vs C9105AXWT-E difference is the bundle and deployment role: C9105AXW-E is the standard wall-plate AP PID, while C9105AXWT-E is Cisco’s teleworker order family.
- For buyers deciding which model to choose, C9105AXW-E should stay on the order when the project needs the AXW wall-plate AP without the EWC image or teleworker kit scope.
Selection Guide
1. Start with the -E country check
Select C9105AXW-E only after the deployment country maps to Cisco’s -E regulatory-domain approval path for the 9105AXW family.
2. Match the AP body to the room design
Use the AXW wall-plate family when the site needs the mGig uplink and local downlink Ethernet ports at a wall location; use AXI only for the different ceiling or surface AP layout.
3. Separate standard and EWC orders
Keep C9105AXW-E as the standard controller-based PID, and order C9105AXW-EWC-E only when the design requires the embedded-controller software image at purchase.
4. Confirm power features before quoting
Check whether the switch port will provide 802.3af or 802.3at power because USB output and LAN1 PoE-out depend on the supported power mode.
Ordering Checklist

Regulatory-domain suffix |
Confirm C9105AXW-E against Cisco compliance resources for the installation country |
The x in C9105AXW-x is a regulatory-domain placeholder and cannot be swapped casually |
|
Standard versus EWC PID |
Decide whether the BOM needs C9105AXW-E or C9105AXW-EWC-E |
The EWC model is a separate Cisco order family with a different software-image path |
|
Teleworker boundary |
Use C9105AXWT-E only when the request calls for the teleworker order family |
The AXWT PID carries a different deployment and kit scope from the standard AXW wall-plate AP |
|
PoE source |
Verify 802.3af or 802.3at power from the switch port or Cisco injector |
The available USB and LAN1 PSE functions change by PoE mode |
