Overall Satisfaction with Cisco 5520 Wireless Controller

We use the [Cisco] 5520 [Wireless Controller] for the implementation of a complete metallurgy plant, with approximately 1,000 users and 100 access points.
  • High availability
  • Throughput too high
  • Integration with Cisco DNA Center
  • High user capacity
  • The graphic interface could be easier for the end-user since sometimes they see it as very abstract and complex.
  • Quick connection
  • Few are offline due to failures

It is suitable for companies with a high number of users and wireless network equipment. It is also specifically well suited for locations where high availability is required. It is not suitable for small corporations or those with a low number of users that would not take advantage of the maximum performance of the device.

Cisco 5520 Wireless Controller Support

During the implementation, we received support from Cisco TAC (for the initial implementation) and then we continued with the set-up and it all was very easy to perform.
