Statement 191-VCCI Class A Warning for Japan Controller Overview Warning This is a Class A product based on the standard of the Voluntary Control Council for Interference by Information Technology Equipment (VCCI). If this equipment is used in a domestic environment, radio disturbance may arise. When such trouble occurs, the user may be required to take corrective actions. Controller Overview The Cisco 5500 Series Wireless Controller is currently available in one model: 5508. The Cisco 5500 Series Wireless Controller, designed for 802.11n performance and maximum scalability, supports up to 250 lightweight access points and 7000 clients, making it ideal for large-sized enterprises and high-density applications. A core component of the Cisco unified wireless solution, these controllers deliver wireless security, intrusion detection, radio management, quality of service (QoS), and mobility across an entire enterprise. The controllers work in conjunction with other controllers, Cisco Wireless Control System (WCS), and access points to provide network managers with a robust wireless LAN solution. The Cisco 5500 Series Wireless Controller supports the OfficeExtend access point, which provides secure communications from a controller to an access point at a remote location, seamlessly extending the corporate WLAN over the Internet to an employee's residence. In order to best use this guide, you should have already designed the wireless topology of your network. Because the radio resource management (RRM) feature automatically detects and configures access points as they appear on the network, it is not necessary to have any access points on the network in order to install and configure a controller.
