consolidating all AP's to remote controllers in single location

[dcarr3311]

Hi

we have three offices all running with their own 5508's. I plan on replacing those WLC's with newer ones. Is there a design were I can replace they with a pair in our CoLo data center and have all the AP's talk back to them? I used to do this with HREAP. Not sure if there is something new?

Thanks 

Dan
