The Meraki Z4-HW is a cloud-managed teleworker gateway designed for secure, high-performance networking in remote work and home-office environments. Designed to extend enterprise-grade connectivity to small offices or offsite staff, Meraki Z4 combines an advanced firewall, VPN concentrator, and wireless access point in a compact, desktop-friendly form.
Featuring Wi-Fi 6 capabilities, Meraki Z4 supports faster speeds, improved device density handling, and reliable coverage for up to 15 devices. Its dual-band 2×2 MU-MIMO radio delivers performance suitable for bandwidth-heavy applications like video conferencing, cloud collaboration tools, and secure remote desktop connections.
Meraki Z4-HW includes five Gigabit Ethernet ports, one of which offers PoE+ support for VoIP phones or other powered devices. This makes it an ideal choice for hybrid and remote employees who need consistent connectivity, secure access to internal systems, and high-quality telephony services from home.
As part of the Meraki cloud-managed ecosystem, Z4 is easily monitored and configured through the intuitive Meraki Dashboard, providing centralized visibility and control over distributed deployments without the complexity of traditional VPN setups.
Meraki Z4-HW offers a simple yet powerful way to support secure, remote access for employees while reducing IT overhead. With Meraki Auto VPN, IT teams can deploy and manage encrypted tunnels between headquarters and remote workers without manual configuration. This not only improves speed-to-deploy but also enhances network security through automatic updates and role-based access control.
By offering integrated Wi-Fi 6, Z4 enables remote users to connect multiple modern devices without signal degradation. The built-in PoE+ port simplifies VoIP phone setups and cuts down on the need for additional power adapters, helping users stay productive without clutter or complexity.
With centralized configuration and analytics through the Meraki Dashboard, network administrators can quickly scale their teleworker solutions, troubleshoot issues, and push updates across multiple locations. This results in a consistent experience and a secure environment for remote teams.
The Meraki Z4 works effortlessly with the broader Cisco Meraki product family. IT teams can connect Z4 to Meraki MX security appliances, MR access points, MV smart cameras, and MT sensors, all managed through the same Meraki Dashboard. This creates a unified, scalable infrastructure with consistent policy enforcement across headquarters, branch offices, and teleworker sites.
Z4 can also serve as a secure endpoint in multi-site SD-WAN deployments, working alongside other Meraki Auto VPN hubs to support zero-touch provisioning and streamlined policy management across a distributed workforce.
