Global Use Product Design
Important Model Information: Cisco's Wi-Fi 7 access points use a Global Use single-PID architecture. The official Cisco hardware PID for this product is CW9176I. Cisco does not list CW9176I-B as a separate regulatory-domain hardware PID in its current Wireless Ordering Guide. Country-specific regulatory approval, permitted channels and transmit-power requirements must be verified for the intended deployment location.
The product reference CW9176I-B may be retained on a reseller or customer-facing product page when it is the supplied commercial reference, while the official Cisco hardware PID should remain identified as CW9176I.
