Hi all,

Can someone explain me a differences in capabilities between WISM & WLC5500. Are there any differences or not ?

I know that hardware is diffrent so you don't have to explain me that thing.

Regards

Marcin

They are pretty much the same. the WiSM2 can do up to 1000 AP where the 5508 can only go up to 500.

 the WiSM2 can do up to 1000 AP

I thought the WiSM-2 can support only up to 500 WAPs?

Lets be clear WISM and WISM 2 are two different part numbers and devices. The subject says WISM and 5508. A regular WISM will only do 300 (150 per board) 2 boards per WiSM blade.

But great point Steve 1,000 ... BANG!
