Cisco Wave 2 WiFi Network Controllers
Cisco Wave 2 Wi-Fi controllers allow fast data exchange, provisioning, management, analysis and troubleshooting for Cisco Wi-Fi appliances and services. Cisco has developed both physical and software-based Wi-Fi controllers for unified administration of WiFi environments, but systems with a large number of wireless access points typically require physical Wi-Fi controllers. Wave 2 Wi-Fi controller appliances from Cisco deliver major advantages in comparison to Wave 1 and earlier models such as greater performance, concurrent support for both 1G and 10G interfaces, improved application visibility and control, and hardened, integrated security.

Cisco 3504 Wireless Controller Setup and Troubleshooting ConsultingThe Cisco 3504 WiFi Controller is an entry-level appliance with a desktop body and designed for smaller organizations. You can install the 3504 in a centralized network environment such as in small branch and home-based offices managed over the wide-area network via FlexConnect, or in bridge deployments where wiring is limited. The 3504 wireless controller supports up to 150 access points and 3,000 client users, offers 4 Gbps throughput, and supports 4,096 VLANs. Cisco's 3504 WiFi controller includes a multi-gigabit Ethernet port and four 1-GB Ethernet interfaces. APs can be connected directly to the controller through two PoE ports. The 3504 wireless controller features subsecond failover for access points and users, which allows uninterrupted availability for applications. As with other Wave 2 wireless controllers available from Cisco, the 3504 device has the built-in ability to communicate with Cisco Prime Infrastructure, Cisco Mobility Services Engine, and Cisco 5520 and 8540 WiFi controllers.

Cisco 5520 Wi-Fi Controller Integration ConsultantsCisco's 5520 WiFi Controller, offered in a 1 rack unit enclosure, is designed to support larger enterprises and campus networks and can be used in centralized, distributed, and mesh architectures. The 5520 Wi-Fi controller can handle as many as 1,500 wireless APs and 20,000 client users, offers 20 Gbps performance, and supports up to 4,096 VLANs. The 5520 WiFi controller features two 10 GE interfaces and features solid-state storage, backup fans, optional backup power supplies, and subsecond failover for high availability.

Cisco 8540 Wi-Fi Controller Integration ConsultingCisco's 8540 Wireless Controller, available in a 2 rack unit (RU) package, is a top-of-the-line WiFi controller intended to support enterprises, service providers, and large campuses. The 8540 Wireless controller can be used in centralized, distributed, and mesh deployments and can handle up to 6,000 access points and 64,000 client users. The 8540 Wireless controller offers data rates up to 40 Gbps and supports up to 4,096 VLANs. The 8340 comes with four 1-GB or 10GE interfaces and features SSD storage, backup power supplies, redundant fans, and subsecond failover.

Wave 1 Cisco WiFi Network Controllers
Wireless LAN Controllers Configuration and Support ConsultingCisco wireless network controllers cut the time and expense required to deploy, monitor, and troubleshoot Wi-Fi networks by centralizing control of critical tasks such as provisioning APs, enforcing single-point policies throughout wired/wireless networks, supporting enterprise-wide Quality of Service (QoS) for voice and HD video, tracking and troubleshooting system performance, activating security capabilities to guard against cyber break-ins and Distributed Denial of Service attacks, and managing IPv6 and dual-stack clients. Cisco has designed wireless LAN controllers for organizations of all sizes and offers desktop or rackmount appliances, modular plug-in controllers for Cisco ISR routers and switches, and Catalyst switches with integrated wireless network controllers.

Cisco Wireless Network Controller Module ConsultantsCisco's Wave 1 wireless network controllers incorporate Cisco CleanAir tools to minimize RF interference and create self-optimizing wireless networks for top 802.11n and 802.11ac throughput and protection. Integrated Bonjour Gateways enable discovery across WLAN, LAN and WAN for Apple-based applications. For fault tolerance, Cisco wireless network controllers allow access point and client stateful failover by permitting a backup high-availability controller to synchronize with a primary controller for AP license tabulation, CAPWAP keys, and access point CAPWAP state. If the primary wireless controller fails, thousands of access points and clients can switchover at subsecond speeds to the secondary wireless LAN controller.

Cisco's Wireless Module for ISR Routers with UCS-E offers entry-level 802.11n and 802.11ac support for Cisco 2900 and 3900 routers deployed by small to medium-sized organizations and branches. This affordable and scalable module can support from five to 200 APs and as many as 6000 clients. (To find out about Progent's online and onsite consulting support for Cisco routers, see Cisco router deployment and troubleshooting consulting.)

Catalyst 3650 Series are 1RU form-factor switches intended for SMBs and branches and features a built-in wireless network controller with the ability to support up to 40 Gb of wireless throughput for each switch and 25 APs and 1000 wireless clients per switch. Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series are 1RU switches intended for mid-size and large organizations and include a built-in wireless LAN controller supporting 40 Gb of wireless throughput on each switch and support for 50 access points and up to 2000 wireless clients. The WiSM2 is a plug-in blade for Catalyst 6500 Series switches with a built-in wireless network controller intended for mid-to-large size enterprises and able to deliver 20 Gbps throughput and able to handle up to 1000 APs and as many as 15,000 wireless clients. (For information concerning Progent's support for Cisco Catalyst switches, refer to Cisco Catalyst switches configuration and management services.)

Cisco 2500 Wireless Controllers are entry-level desktop devices that simplify the deployment and operation of wireless networks for small and midsize businesses and branch offices. The Cisco 2500 Series wireless controller can manage from five to 75 access points and up to 1000 clients and can deliver throughput of 1 Gbps.

Cisco Wireless Controllers Consulting and TroubleshootingThe Cisco 5500 Series Wireless Controller is a scalable 1RU appliance designed for mid-to-large sized enterprises and campuses and can support 500 wireless access points and 7,000 clients while providing 8 Gbps performance. The Cisco 5760 Series Wireless Controller is a 1RU device intended for mid-to-large campus environments with the ability to manage 1000 access points and 12,000 clients and delivering throughput of 60 Gbps to handle high wireless client densities and high usage of video-intensive applications.

The Cisco Flex 7500 Series Wireless Controller is intended to manage thousands of wireless branches from a single datacenter, avoiding the requirement for a Wi-Fi controller at each remote site. The 1RU rackmount Flex 7500 allows you to build a private cloud to deploy, track, maintain, and repair as many as 6000 access points and up to 64,000 wireless clients while handling 1 Gbps throughput. Cisco's 8500 Wireless Controller is a 1RU rackmount device designed to monitor and manage Wi-Fi networks for very large campuses or service providers and can scale to support up to 6000 wireless points and 64,000 wireless clients while offering 10 Gbps throughput.

Legacy Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers
Cisco Wireless Network Controllers Consulting FirmCisco Wireless LAN Controllers provide single-point management of WLANs by streamlining the handling of common technologies including integrated intrusion prevention system (IPS), fast RF control, automatic deployment, and N+1 redundancy. Wireless LAN controllers work with small wireless access points to deliver enhanced throughput and advanced administration capabilities.

Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers (WLCs) offer the manageability, scalability, protection, and fault tolerance that system managers require to create secure, large-scale wireless environments, from satellite locations to small companies to headquarter campuses. Cisco's legacy WLCs can be configured together to provide support for up to 2400 WAPs for each roaming domain.

The Cisco WLCM or WLCM-E Controller Module for IS Routers provides small-to mid-size businesses (SMBs) and enterprises a cost effective way to deploy and control secure wireless LANs at branch locations. These controllers manage as many as a dozen Cisco Aironet wireless access points and are installable in 2800/3800 IS Routers and 3700 Series Integrated Services Routers. (To find out about Progent's remote and onsite consulting services for Cisco routers, see Cisco router deployment and management services.)
