Cisco 5500 Series Wireless Controllers

The Cisco

5500 Series Wireless Controller is a

highly scalable and flexible platform that enables

systemwide 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 the ability to simultaneously

manage 250 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

next-generation 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 and secure their wireless

networks. As a component of the Cisco Unified

Wireless Network, this controller provides real-time

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).
