Cisco 5500 Series Wireless Controllers

The Cisco

5500 Series Wireless Controller is a highly scalable and

flexible platform that enables system wide services for mission-critical

wireless in medium to large-sized enterprises and campus

environments. Designed for

802.11n performance and maximum

scalability, the 5500 Series offers enhanced uptime with RF visibility

and protection, the ability to simultaneously manage up to 500 access

points; superior performance for reliable streaming video and toll quality

voice; and improved fault recovery for a consistent

mobility experience

in the most demanding environments.

Features

Optimized for

high performance wireless networking, the 5500 Series

offers improved mobility and prepares the business for the next wave of

mobile devices and applications. The 5500 Series supports a higher

density of clients and delivers more efficient roaming, with at least nine

times the throughput of existing 802.11a/g networks.

The 5500 Series automates wireless configuration and management

functions and allows network managers to have the visibility and control

needed to cost-effectively manage, secure and optimize the

performance of their wireless networks. With integrated CleanAir

technology the 5500 Series protects 802.11n performance by providing

cross-network access to real-time and historic RF interference

information for quick, troubleshooting and resolution. As a component

of the Cisco Unified Wireless Network, this controller provides realtime

communication between

Cisco Aironet

access points, the Cisco

Wireless Control System (WCS), and the Cisco Mobility Services

Engine to deliver centralized security policies, wireless intrusion

prevention system (IPS) capabilities, award-winning RF management,

and quality of service (QoS).

Software Licensing Flexibility

Base access point licensing offers flexibility to add up to 500 additional

access points as business needs grow. The licensing structure

supports a variety of business mobility needs as part of the basic

feature set, including the OfficeExtend solution for secure, mobile teleworking and Enterprise Wireless Mesh, which

allows access points to dynamically establish wireless connections in locations where it may be difficult or

impossible to physically connect to the wired network.
