AIR-AP2802E-KK910C Cisco Aironet 2800e MU-MIMO 802.11ac Wave 2 10 APs

AIR-AP2802E-KK910C exact order identity

AIR-AP2802E-KK910C is a Cisco Aironet 2800 Series controller-based 802.11ac Wave 2 access point order. The exact line combines a 2802E indoor access point for external antennas, regulatory-domain token K, and a configurable ten-unit eco-pack.

Antenna boundary

Cisco documents four RP-TNC antenna connectors plus a Smart Antenna connector on the 2802E. Antennas are a separate engineered part of the deployment bill of materials. Before release, record each Cisco-supported antenna part number, connector use, gain, pattern, cable type, cable loss, mounting orientation and local approval. A connector fit alone does not establish RF performance or regulatory suitability.

Order-form boundary

Cisco's ordering convention uses K910C for a configurable ten-access-point eco-pack. Configuration selection and physical quantity are separate acceptance gates: the chosen domain must be approved and ten individual units must be reconciled. Retain the configured-domain evidence with the carton record, then create ten serial-level asset rows. Do not release a partial, mixed-domain or unconfigured carton to installation without a documented correction. Because this is a configurable line, purchasing must retain the finally selected domain on both the authorized quotation and received label. The carton is not the deployable asset: each of the ten access points needs its own serial, location, controller and acceptance result.

K regulatory-domain channel evidence

Cisco's 2800 Series data sheet lists the K profile as 2.4 GHz channels 1-13; 5 GHz blocks at 5.180-5.320, 5.500-5.620, and 5.745-5.805 GHz. The K profile has three separated 5 GHz groups, with narrower middle and upper limits than several neighboring profiles. Those boundaries must be reflected in controller and survey records.

Verify all three channel groups and their upper limits after the AP joins the controller. Retain the output with the K-domain purchase line so a broader template cannot be mistaken for compliance. Regulatory-domain letters are identifiers, not country names; use Cisco's compliance tool for the actual deployment country and retain the lookup date.

Procurement inference: three separated groups with distinct upper limits make boundary verification more important than a simple channel count. The acceptance package should list each enabled group and compare it with the K-domain survey. If the controller aggregates the output into one display, export a detailed channel list for evidence. Recheck those boundaries after controller migration or country-setting changes.

Deployment evidence worksheet

Controller join evidence

Stage the access point on the controller release intended for production. Retain the controller model, software version, discovery path, authorization method and first successful CAPWAP join. Confirm that configuration download completes and that both radios reach an expected operational state. Remove any temporary staging authorization before handover. This evidence separates an orderable access point from a unit that has actually been proven compatible with the planned controller environment.

Power-state acceptance

Measure power after the access point has joined its controller and the planned radios and services are active. Record switch model, port, negotiated power level, LLDP result and any reduced-capability warning. An idle boot result is not sufficient evidence for the deployed power budget. If an injector is proposed, verify its supported use and include its exact identity in the maintained bill of materials rather than treating it as an unspecified accessory.

Survey-to-install reconciliation

Attach the approved RF survey location, mounting height, orientation, expected client density, channel width and neighboring-radio assumptions to the order. After installation, compare measured coverage and interference with that design. If ceiling construction, antenna placement or obstructions changed, document the deviation and repeat the affected measurements. This provides a site-specific acceptance reason for the exact unit instead of relying on a family data sheet alone.

Country approval retention

Save the Cisco compliance lookup result, lookup date, deployment country, approved regulatory token and reviewer. If the destination changes, stop and repeat the approval rather than moving the unit on the strength of an earlier purchase. Compare the controller country setting and available channels with the retained evidence. Regulatory eligibility is a deployment condition and cannot be inferred from connector fit, stock location or a similar-looking part number.

Authentication path test

Commission representative clients through association, authentication, address assignment, DNS and application reachability. Preserve the identity policy used, test client type, result and relevant controller logs. An access point that joins its controller has not yet demonstrated the user path. Repeat the test after any controller, certificate or authentication-service change and retain failures separately from RF or switch-port evidence.

Capacity observation

Define the expected concurrent clients, application mix, airtime utilization and channel-width assumptions for this location. After commissioning, capture radio utilization, retry behavior and representative throughput during a meaningful load period. Compare the observation with the survey design and state any shortfall. A peak link rate from a data sheet is not a site capacity result and should not replace measured operating evidence.

Interference baseline

Preserve the pre-install and post-install noise, neighboring-radio and channel-occupancy observations for the selected location. Record any controller-driven channel change during acceptance. If the regulatory profile limits the channel choices, state how that constraint affected reuse and mitigation. This baseline gives future troubleshooting a reference point and prevents an unrelated interference change from being attributed to the hardware order.

Operational log retention

Store the initial controller events, switch-port state, radio assignment, channel list and client test results with a consistent asset identifier. Define how long commissioning evidence is retained and who can retrieve it. A later firmware, controller or RF change should add a new dated observation rather than overwrite the original. The resulting history supports lifecycle decisions and distinguishes a new regression from the accepted baseline.
