Overall Satisfaction with Cisco 8540 Wireless Controller
We use the Cisco 8540 Wireless Controller at the organization level for wireless connectivity and data control. It is an exceptional tool with a lot of benefits and fits our needs well, as we have a large number of employees and APs to distribute and manage bandwidth among. Our Cisco 8540 Wireless Controller always perfectly achieves KPIs of benchmarked data distribution at high speeds with controllable bandwidth and 99.99% uptime.
- High-speed data transfers
- Large number of APs
- Best wireless control for large organizations
- Support application control
- Costly solution.
- New and advanced products have been introduced by Cisco, so it is a little old now.
- It has positively impacted overall and ROI in terms of data KPI achievements.
We upgraded to the latest model of Cisco recently and both the Cisco 8540 and Cisco 9800 are great in their jobs (although a few additional improvements along with the latest technology and AP controls are observed in the later model). The buyers can choose either of these two products from Cisco as their wireless controller without noticing any overall major difference.
