CHAPTER 1
About Cisco Beacon Point Module
Cisco Beacon Point Module (AIR-RM-VBLE2-K9=) is a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE version v4.2) beacon
module that is mounted on supported Access Points. The access points now act as integrated WiFI and
Bluetooth devices or Bluetooth-integrated access points. The smart device receives signals of different
strengths from multiple Bluetooth-integrated access points.
Deploying Bluetooth-integrated access points is similar to any Wi-Fi location based service solution. The
recommended density for deploying the Bluetooth-integrated access points is 1 per 2500 sq.ft. The
recommended height for a Bluetooth-integrated access points is 13 ft (3.9 m). Cisco Beacon Center requires
the correct physical orientation, position, and height of Bluetooth-integrated access points for providing
clients with indoor navigation, turn-by-turn guidance and proximity messaging for best indoor navigation
experience.
Bluetooth-integrated access pointss connect with Cisco Beacon Center over the internet using secure HTTPS
protocol. Each Bluetooth-integrated access points has a unique IP address just like any enterprise grade
networking device. Bluetooth-integrated access points should connect with Cisco Beacon Center for

management and control. For Bluetooth-integrated access points to communicate with the Cisco Beacon
Center the port numbers 80 (TCP) and 443 (TCP, UDP) must be open.
