Features and Benefits
The Cisco Aironet 1570 Series meets the demanding needs of customers across a broad range of industries spanning enterprises and service providers. It offers a scalable and secure mesh architecture for high-performance Wi-Fi services. It also addresses the expanding demand for Wi-Fi access services, network-to-network mobility, video surveillance, and cellular data offload to Wi-Fi.
The Cisco 1570 builds and expands on the successful 1550 series legacy of being the Wi-Fi outdoor AP of choice by service providers needing carrier-grade, ruggedized devices that are easy to deploy and maintain.
Table 1 describes the Aironet 1570’s main features and benefits.
Table 1. |
Primary Capabilities and How You Benefit |
|
|
|
|
Feature |
|
Description/Benefit(s) |
|
|
|
802.11ac support with 4x4 |
Delivers higher data rates over a greater area with pervasive coverage than any competing AP. Provides a |
|
MIMO, three spatial streams |
data rate of up to 1.3 Gbps, roughly triple the rates offered by today’s high-end 802.11n access points. |
|
|
|
|
Maximum RF radiated power |
Lets you use the fewest number of APs to get the greatest possible area coverage and highest throughput |
|
allowable on both 2.4 and 5 |
rates. |
|
GHz radios |
|
|
|
|
|
Cisco High-Density |
Helps maintain network performance as Wi-Fi clients, APs, and high-bandwidth applications join and roam the |
|
Experience (HDX) |
network. |
|
|
|
|
Cisco CleanAir® Technology |
Provides spectrum intelligence across 20-, 40-, and 80-MHz channels to combat performance problems |
|
|
|
caused by wireless interference. Also part of Cisco HDX technology. |
|
|
|
Cisco ClientLink 3.0 |
Uses true beamforming smart-antenna technology to improve downlink performance by up to 6 dB to all mobile |
|
|
|
devices, including one-, two-, and three-spatial-stream devices on 802.11ac. Increases smartphone and tablet |
|
|
battery efficiency by up to 50 percent. Part of Cisco HDX technology. |
|
|
|
MIMO equalization |
Boosts performance and reliability by reducing the impact of signal fade and associated “dead zones” |
|
|
|
|
Cisco Flexible Antenna Port |
Makes the AP’s external antenna ports software-configurable for either four dual-band (2.4 and 5 GHz) |
|
technology |
|
configuration or two pairs of single-band configuration with one pair operating at 2.4 GHz and the other at 5 |
|
|
GHz. This provides the operator with added flexibility in coverage options. |
|
|
|
Modular architecture design |
The architecture of the 1572E models provides the flexibility for a potential add-on module for future proofing |
|
|
|
and investment protection. For example, you could add external modules with technology options such as a 4G |
|
|
LTE picocell or a sensor. Such a module could be field-upgradeable to an existing 1570 network. |
|
|
|
GPS support |
|
Keeps track of the location of all outdoor APs deployed. With a built-in GPS receiver, the coordinates of the AP |
|
|
can be located by your WLAN controller or management system. |
|
|
|
Central management using |
Network lifecycle management tool that integrates with Cisco Aironet APs and WLAN controllers to configure |
|
Cisco Prime™ Infrastructure |
and manage your wireless networks. Helps prevent costly maintenance service calls to outdoor locations. |
|
|
|
Network administrators have a single solution for RF prediction, policy provisioning, network optimization, |
|
|
troubleshooting, security monitoring, and WLAN system management. |

DOCSIS 3.0 Capabilities |
DOCSIS3.0 with up to 8x4, 16x8, and 24x8 Downstream (DS) x Upstream (US) channel bonding capability for Hybrid |
|||||||
|
Fiber-Coaxial (HFC) cable modem (CM) options. The CM protocols include NA-DOCSIS3.0, Euro-DOCSIS3.0 and |
|||||||
|
Japan-DOCSIS3.0. The NA-DOCSIS3.0 is offered with either (42/88 MHz or 85/108 MHz) diplexer split. The Euro and |
|||||||
|
Japan DOCSIS are offered with (65/108 MHz) diplexer split. |
|
|
|
||||
|
NA-DOCSIS3.0, Euro-DOCSIS3.0 24x8 cable modem provides up to: |
|
|
|
||||
|
● Twenty four (24) bonded channels on the downstream with total throughput of up to 912 and 1200 Mbps respectively |
|||||||
|
(maximum usable throughput without overhead) |
|
|
|
||||
|
● Eight (8) bonded channels on the upstream with total throughput of up to 216 Mbps (maximum usable throughput |
|||||||
|
without overhead) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
● Designed to meet DOCSIS 3.0 specifications as well as backward compatibility with existing DOCSIS2.0 networks. |
|||||||
|
● Enhanced packet processing technology to maximize performance. |
|
|
|
||||
|
Channel-bonded cable modems must be used in conjunction with a cable modem termination system (CMTS) that |
|||||||
|
supports channel bonding per the DOCSIS3.0 specifications. When used with a non-channel-bonded CMTS, |
|||||||
|
channel-bonded cable modems function as conventional DOCSIS 2.0 cable modems. |
