About This Product

Overview

The Cisco 8540 Wireless Controller provides centralized control, management, and troubleshooting for high-scale deployments in service provider and large campus deployments. It offers flexibility to support multiple deployment modes in the same controller: for example, centralized mode for campus, Cisco FlexConnect™ mode for lean branches managed over the WAN, and mesh (bridge) mode for deployments where full Ethernet cabling is unavailable. As a component of the Cisco Unified Wireless Network, this controller provides real-time communications between Cisco Aironet® access points, the Cisco Prime™ Infrastructure, and the Cisco Mobility Services Engine, and is interoperable with other Cisco controllers.

  • Use this wireless LAN controller to provide the visibility, scalability, and reliability needed for system wide wireless LAN network
  • 54 Mbit/s wireless transmission speed is ideal for fast data transfer with maximum reliability
  • This wireless lan controller uses IEEE 802.11ac technology with steadfast speed of up to 54 Mbit/s for optimal wireless signals
  • Up to 10x faster than standard Ethernet connectivity for your wired network
  • Management port for convenient and more powerful connectivity
  • Rack-mountable form factor for your usage convenience and better reliance
