Reliable, Secure and Scalable Wireless Controller for Mid-sized Businesses, Schools and Hospitals
The NETGEAR ProSAFE® Wireless Controller WC7520 offers a high-performance, fully-featured, yet extremely affordable, Wireless LAN architecture to meet the demands of medium-sized businesses, schools, and hospitals with thousands of users.
Performance
- Seamless L2 and L3 fast roaming provide support for latency-sensitive applications such as video, audio and voice over wireless
- Dynamic RF Management: Automatic controls of AP transmit power and channel allocations ensure coverage by minimizing interferences
- Self-healing Wireless: Automatic WLAN healing after loss of AP or due to RF interferences adapts the power and channel of the other APs around the area
- Load balancing and rate limiting ensure fair bandwidth allocation among all clients for robust wireless connectivity
- Dynamic load balancing of clients across APs is provided based on number of clients per AP, or based on signal strength threshold/data rate threshold of clients per AP
Scalability
- The scalable WC7520 Controller enables businesses to grow their wireless network as needed with a dramatic return on investment: WC7520 scales up to 50 access points (AP) - and up to 150 access points (AP) with stacking
- Support of controller redundancy to maximize reliability
Business Value
- Customer floor maps: Heat maps by wireless band, wireless channel and signal strength allow real-time reporting of the wireless network status
- Redundancy for always-on reliability and peace of mind: N+1 redundancy with failover (one cold redundant Controller for 1, 2 or 3 production Controllers)
- Built to last, the WC7520 Controller is backed by a Lifetime Warranty
Ease of Use
- Configure the MAC address ?lters, make SSID changes, and change the password for all access points—all from the single WC7520 interface
- Triangulation: Administrators can easily locate known APs, rogue APs, and associated clients on the heat map
- Wireless bundles (for single and dual band APs) for ease of ordering
-
Robust security
Equipped with a comprehensive suite of encryption algorithms including AES, WPA2-Enterprise, and WPA2-PSK, this bundle ensures a secure network environment. Advanced authentication methods like Active Directory, LDAP, and RADIUS further fortify network integrity. -
High capacity management
Designed to manage up to 15 manageable access points and support 2000 concurrent stations, making it ideal for medium to large-scale deployments. With the ability to detect up to 512 rogue access points, network security is enhanced. -
Versatile connectivity
Features multiple interface options including 4 x 1000Base-T RJ-45 connectors for Gigabit Ethernet, a DB-9 console port, and a Type-A USB 2.0 port, providing flexible connectivity solutions. -
Comprehensive networking features
Supports a wide range of networking protocols and features such as IPv4/IPv6 support, Quality of Service (QoS), VLAN, and Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) support, ensuring a versatile and efficient network. -
Durable and reliable
With an MTBF of 664,072 hours and designed to operate within a wide range of temperatures and humidity, this wireless controller bundle is built for long-term reliability and performance.
