WiNG NX 7500
Integrated Services Platform
Next-generation wireless services for midsize and campus
environments.
Advanced Performance and One Point of Control for your
Entire Wireless LAN (WLAN)
The NX 7500 brings the next generation in WLAN speed, security,
reliability, and flexibility to the midsize enterprise, providing comprehensive
management and control of up to 2,048 network elements through a single
pane of glass. With the NX 7500, all network infrastructure is empowered
with the intelligence to make the best routing decisions, so you get
maximum speed and throughput — the congestion and latency associated
with routing trac through a centralized controller is eliminated.
Maximum Flexibility Delivers Superior Cost-Eciency and
Investment Protection
With the modular design of the NX 7500, you can purchase the features you
need today and add what you need tomorrow. As the number of users and
application bandwidth requirements increase, upgrade to 10 Gigabit (10G)
Ethernet, right in your facility. The fully-programmable multi-core network
processing engine makes it easy to add features that require in-line data
processing, without the typical limitations of hardware ASIC-based solutions.
And the powerful control processor for management is accompanied by a
high-throughput cryptographic engine for extreme security.
Highlights
Powered by the Advanced WiNG 5
Operating System
• WiNG 5 provides the advanced
intelligence required to create
the “fully network-aware" WLAN,
allowing every piece of infrastructure
in your wireless network to work
together to route every transmission
as eciently as possible.
Plug-and-Play
• Fast and easy zero-touch
installation plus rule-based access
point adoption from all locations
automates equipment discovery and
deployment.
Hierarchical Management
• Manage your entire WLAN through
a single graphical user interface that
provides a macro and micro view —
simultaneously view all your branch
locations or drill down into any piece
of infrastructure anywhere in your
network, from access points that are
adopted directly by the NX 7500 to
NX 5500 and RFS 4000 branch-level
controllers and their adopted and
stand-alone WiNG 5 access points.
Centralized Troubleshooting and
Network Assurance
• Single pane of glass for remote
troubleshooting of the wired/wireless
network that is distributed across
multiple locations with dierent
architectures; aggregated KPIs
provide a global network health
view while remote tools allow
troubleshooting of individual network
elements; tools include historical
troubleshooting via detailed
forensics.
