Meraki MR57 Wi-Fi 6E access point
The Meraki MR57 Wi-Fi 6E access point is a brand new, cloud-managed 4×4 802.11ax UL/DL MU-MIMO device. It’s designed for high-density public environments, and for faster browsing and downloading from mobile devices. Companies with 5G deployments, as well as offices with high-bandwidth usage would also benefit.
The Meraki MR57 features a software defined flex radio. You can toggle between a 5GHz and 6GHz, which enables the Meraki MR57 to operate in either a dual 5GHz configuration or a true tri-band configuration.
What is Tri-band?
Tri-band configuration unlocks the use of new spectrum in the 6GHz frequency range. It provides additional channels to increase throughput and reduce interference and noise from legacy devices. 6GHz support ensures that the MR57 supports future technologies.
Wi-Fi 6E? Is that a typo?
No. WiFi simply 6E means WiFi 6 extended to the 6 GHz band. WiFi 6E works with the same standard as WiFi 6, but with an extended spectrum. 6 GHz is the new frequency band ranging from 5.925 GHz to 7.125 GHz, allowing up to 1,200 MHz of additional spectrum.
On existing bands, channels are currently crammed into the limited spectrum. But the 6 GHz band exists without overlap or interference. This means more bandwidth, faster speeds, and lower latency. It opens up resources for future innovations like in AR/VR, 8K streaming and more.

And the 6 GHz band is exclusive to WiFi 6E devices. This means 6 GHz networks don’t need to slow down to accommodate older devices. As a result, WiFi 6E devices can take full advantage of the bandwidth, spectrum, and speed improvements of 6 GHz without competing with any non-6E devices.
Meraki MR57 features
The Meraki MR57 Wi-Fi 6E access point pushes up to 8.35 Gbps* aggregate frame rate with concurrent 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz and 6GHz radios. A dedicated fourth radio provides real-time WIDS/WIPS with automated RF optimization. And, a fifth integrated IoT radio delivers Bluetooth scanning and beaconing. This makes the Meraki MR57 perfect for high-density, performance-intensive environments.
