Description
Product Overview
Optimized for 802.11ac Wave 2 performance, the intent-driven Cisco DNA ready Cisco 3504 Wireless Controller with Cisco Multigigabit Ethernet technology is a compact, highly scalable, service-rich, resilient, and flexible platform that enables next-generation wireless networks for small to medium-sized enterprises and branch office deployments.
The Cisco AIR-CT3504-K9 Wireless Controller provides centralized control, management, and troubleshooting for small to medium-sized enterprises and branch offices. It offers flexibility to support multiple deployment modes in the same controller—a centralized mode for campus environments, Cisco FlexConnect mode for lean branches managed over the WAN, and a mesh (bridge) mode for deployments in which full Ethernet cabling is unavailable.
Product Highlights
● Intent-driven programmability and streaming telemetry.
● Quiet operation, with a small form factor and compact design ideal for space-constrained deployments, providing flexibility
without compromising on features.
● Cisco Multigigabit Ethernet technology to support next-generation 802.11ac Wave 2 deployments using
existing cabling infrastructure.
● Subsecond access point and client failover for uninterrupted application availability.
