A European mid-size enterprise integrates the HWIC-AP-G-E-AP card into Cisco 2901 ISRs across three remote sites. Each router delivers 2.4 GHz 802.11 b/g wireless alongside its high-speed WAN link. Outcome: 30% lower hardware costs, 40% faster rollout, unified management via Cisco IOS, and enterprise-grade WPA2-Enterprise security.
A national retail chain installs the HWIC-AP-G-E-AP card on Cisco 1941 routers to broadcast two SSIDs—one for point-of-sale terminals, one for guest access. Traffic is isolated at Layer 3 to meet PCI DSS requirements while delivering consistent 2.4 GHz b/g coverage. Outcome: enhanced data security, improved guest satisfaction, and streamlined network operations leveraging existing router infrastructure.
An automotive plant in Europe fits Cisco 2911 ISRs with the HWIC-AP-G-E-AP card to wirelessly connect 802.11 b/g IoT sensors on the production line. Real-time telemetry flows into the MES for predictive maintenance. Outcome: 25% reduction in cabling costs, centralized wireless management, and a 15% boost in equipment uptime through proactive monitoring.
