Description

Cisco 2504 Wireless Controller Ghana

The Cisco2504 Wireless Controller Ghana supports Cisco Application Visibility and Control (AVC), the technology that includes Cisco’s Network-Based Application Recognition 2 (NBAR-2) engine. N-BAR-2 does deep packet inspection (DPI) to classify applications and tie into quality of service (QoS) to either drop or mark the traffic, thereby prioritizing business-critical applications in the network. Cisco AVC uses NetFlow Version 9 to export the flows to cisco prime infrastructure or a third-party NetFlow Collector. The Cisco 2504 Wireless Controller also supports Bonjour Services Directory, which enables Bonjour (Apple) Services to be advertised and utilized in a separate Layer 3 network. Wireless Policy engine is a wireless profiler and policy feature on this Cisco Wireless Controller enabling profiling of wireless devices and enforcement of policies such as VLAN assignment, QoS, ACL, and time-of-day-based access.

An ideal choice for smaller networks and branch offices, this Cisco Wireless Controller Ghana grows with your business. It scales to 75 access points and 1000 client devices. It also offers highly secure wireless guest access. With integrated Cisco CleanAir technology, this controller runs a self-healing, self-optimizing network.

Features

Improved throughput

With an increase to 500 Mbps, the Cisco2504 Wireless Controller allows your data to flow faster.

Flexible licensing

The Cisco2504 Wireless Controller Ghana scales to fit your organization. It supports up to 75 access point licenses, so that as your business gets larger, your network can grow with you.
