Deploy the Cisco Wireless Service Module 2 (WiSM2) Controller on the Catalyst 6500 Series Switches to help enable systemwide wireless functions in medium-sized to large environments.

This highly scalable integrated blade switch extends the same policies and security from the wired network core to the wireless edge. It lowers hardware costs and offers flexible configuration options that can reduce the total cost of operations and ownership for wireless networks.

This controller provides medium-sized to large single-site WLAN deployments with the highest performance, security, and scalability to support mission-critical wireless business communications. Features include:

• Roaming across wider geographic areas and faster performance for simultaneous applications
• VideoStream technology for optimized video performance
• CleanAir technology for a self-healing, self-optimizing network that avoids RF interference

Other benefits of the WiSM2 controller include:

• Connections for up to 500 access points and 10,000 clients
• Support for higher client density than other wireless LAN controllers
• Ability to update 500 access points at once
• Layer 3 mobility services for video, voice, guest, location, Enterprise Wireless Mesh, and teleworking
• Highest level of wireless security, with Layer 1 Wireless intrusion prevention system (wIPS) capabilities
