7500 Series High Availability Wireless Controller AIR-CT7510-HA-K9 The Cisco Flex 7500 Series Cloud Controllers (Figure 1) can manage wireless access points in up to 6000 branch locations. This controller allows IT managers to configure, manage, and troubleshoot up to 6000 access points and 64,000 clients from the data center. The Cisco Flex 7500 Series controller supports secure guest access, rogue detection for Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliance and in-branch (locally switched) Wi-Fi voice and video. The Cisco Flex 7500 Series Cloud Controller provides centralized control, management, and troubleshooting. It supports the Cisco FlexConnect™ solution for a lean branch network that uses access points connected to controllers in the data center over a wide area network. Data traffic from the access points is switched locally at the branch, so that in the rare event of a WAN failure at the branch, wireless clients remain connected on the network with access to local resources within the branch. Wireless branch deployment for up to 100 access points per branch Centralized control, management, and client troubleshooting Seamless Layer 2 roaming within a Cisco FlexConnect group of 100 access points Seamless client access in the event of a WAN link failure (local data switching) Local RADIUS server support to enable new clients to access wireless services without depending on the central RADIUS servers Support for high-latency WAN links Secure guest access 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity support: 2 x 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports for redundancy Efficient access point upgrade that optimizes the WAN link utilization for downloading access point images Cisco OfficeExtend technology supports corporate wireless service for mobile and remote workers with secure wired tunnels to the Cisco Aironet 1130 or 1140 Series Access Points Enhanced security with a wireless intrusion prevention system (wIPS) Rogue detection for PCI compliance Wi-Fi Certified™ Passpoint (Hotspot 2.0) for 3G offloads Local Split tunneling for improved WAN bandwidth utilization VLAN based routing for deployment flexibility of single sign on WGB/uWGB support for local switching simplifies deployment of wired-only devices in remote locations Wireless IEEE 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11d, WMM/802.11e, 802.11h, 802.11n Wired/Switching/Routing IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T, IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-TX specification, 1000BASE-T. 1000BASE-SX, 1000-BASE-LH, IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging
