Cisco Aironet Series 3700 Access Point
Unique Installations
Clean Rooms (Healthcare)
Many hospitals and factories have requirements to wipe down or gently spray the environment with a chemical (often diluted
material that has cleaning / disinfectant properties). The Cisco AP 3600 is designed with a purpose guild Wi-Fi chipset with
enterprise and industrial class components (
Figure 19
). This enables the AP enclosure to have a Plenum rating and is vent-less,
so the unit is ideal for these types of applications.

Note
AP 2600 and AP 3700 is also made of a similar construction and designed for clean room deployments.
If the clean room environment requires metal ceilings or areas where tile is not practical, a metal enclosure from Oberon can
be used (
Figure 20
).
