Centralised Controller and Branch AP

[ashok.jaiswal]

Hi,

I have recently came across a requirement where customer wants to setup a wireless in its 10 retail stores. After site survey we came to know each store needs 20-25 AP to provide coverage. so total number of access points across setup would be 200-250. Each store connected to centerlised datacenter through 512 kbps of MPLS link. Can I use 1 WLC controller at Datacenter to control 250 AP spread across 10 stores?

Regards,

Ashok

You can use WLC 5508 with 300 AP licenses (100+100+100) or the newer Flex 7500 since you'll mostly use HREAP.
