WLC800 Wireless LAN Controller

The WLC800 Wireless LAN Controller brings the scalability, manageability, reliability, and resiliency, of wired networks to wireless networks. It supports access points that control three spatial streams in deployments of 802.11n. It also enables seamless and secure deployment of enterprise wireless networks over existing L2/L3 network without disruption.

The WLC800 scales to support demanding wireless applications indoors and outdoors, including voice over Wi-Fi for thousands of users. It also provides nonstop availability and hitless failover without service interruption — even in the event of a controller failure. The WLC800 offloads policy enforcement and data forwarding to access points for optimised traffic flow, reduced latency, and scalability.

Features:

• 8 Gbps of switching throughput
• Up to 128 802.11n APs
• Stateful per-user and per-service firewalls, wireless intrusion protection, 802.1Q trunking, and per-VLAN spanning tree (PVST+)
• Complete wired to wireless quality of service (QoS)

You can configure controllers as a virtual controller cluster for many-to-many redundancy without the need for expensive hot standby controllers. Clusters of WLC800 Wireless LAN Controllers form a mobility domain, which provides seamless roaming, intrusion protection, and RF management over large, single-site wireless LAN deployments. A network domain interconnects mobility domains to support multiple sites and span wide geographic regions with secure, seamless mobility applications and smart mobile services.
