5520 Wireless Controller

Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers

We had used a pair of 5506 WLCs in the past and wanted to stick with using Cisco. We moved to the 5520 platform to support the APs that we already had. We found it easy to migrate and also a more robust platform supporting our campus expansion. We plan to keep expanding the use of this device.
  • Onboards new clients
  • Performs upgrades with ease
  • Allows ongoing diagnostics of WIFI
  • Adoption of new APs with software
  • User interface
  • Moving away from old Aironet
  • Zero down time
  • Improved wifi performance.
We only ever used this line.
[They are well suited for] Most large campus networks.
