Wireless mesh con APs "N"

remi-reszka · ‎03-23-2011

Hi. I am looking to implement an indoor wireless mesh with a WLC and WCS but want to use N technology (AP 1252 o 3500 cleanair). Did anybody try that, are those AP supported by WLC?

Thanks in advance.

You want mesh with "N"? Try the 1550.

Cisco Aironet 1550 Series Outdoor Access Point

Hi there. Thanks for the info. Those ones are quite big ones and more suitable for ISPs. I was hoping

I could use my 1252s for indoor mesh. Is it possible?

Not true.

Not really. Only Cisco Aironet 1130AG and 1240AG series indoor access points can run Mesh firmwares.

Indoor mesh with 11N APs is not currently available....

However, I'd suggest you discuss this with your channel/account team. You might just find some good news.
