Hardware Features

This chapter describes the hardware features of Cisco Catalyst 9136 Series Access Points and contains the following sections:

Access Point Views, Ports, and Connectors

The AP has multiple options that you can use to power the AP. For information about connectors and ports for the AP models, see Connectors and Ports on the AP.

Environment Sensors

The AP has inbuilt environment sensors that work with Cisco Spaces (earlier known as Cisco DNA Spaces). There are two visible vents at the top of the AP. The sensors measure the following environment parameters:

  • Ambient air temperature

  • Air quality (Total Volatile Organic Compounds [TVOC])

  • Humidity

Connectors and Ports on the AP
