Overview

Cisco Catalyst Wireless Gateways extend an enterprise network to remote workers, providing numerous advantages:

  • Hardware-based stable connectivity to an enterprise VPN

  • Optimized network performance with Wi-Fi 6

  • Cellular network connectivity, in supporting models, providing a cellular internet connection (with one active and one standby SIM) for uninterrupted internet connectivity

  • Separate service set identifiers (SSIDs) for connecting work and personal devices

Cisco Catalyst Wireless Gateway connectivity is as follows:

  • The Cisco Catalyst Wireless Gateway CG113-W6 accesses the internet using a wired WAN connection at a remote site.

  • The Cisco Catalyst Wireless Gateway CG113-4GW6 accesses the internet using a wired WAN connection at a remote site or using a cellular link. The device supports two SIM cards: one active, and one on standby. If the wired WAN connection fails, the device fails over to the cellular link to ensure internet connectivity.


Note


The device has a single cellular connection, so only one SIM can be active at a given time. You can configure which of the two SIM slots serves as primary and which serves as secondary (failover).


Managing Cisco Catalyst Wireless Gateways

Use Cisco SD-WAN Manager to configure and manage Cisco Catalyst Wireless Gateways. Cisco SD-WAN Manager provides a convenient workflow for configuring Wi-Fi, cellular, VPN, and other functionality. Cisco SD-WAN Manager also provides methods for monitoring device performance.
