Cisco 8540 IEEE 802.11ac Wireless LAN Controller

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
• Ethernet port provides Ethernet connections for fast data transfer and large file transfers between your access point and wired network
• Its management capability provides efficient control over setup and configuration of your network
