The Cisco Wireless LAN Services Module (part number: WS-SVC-WLAN-1-K9) is an expansion module specifically designed to bolster the capabilities of Cisco Catalyst switches. This module allows organisations to implement, manage, and secure wireless LANs (WLANs) over their existing network without requiring a separate dedicated appliance. It integrates seamlessly into the chassis of supported Catalyst switches, enhancing the switch’s capacity to function as both a wired and wireless controller.
One of the defining features of the Cisco Wireless LAN Services Module is its ability to manage multiple access points, providing centralised control over wireless networks. This module supports a range of wireless standards and protocols, including 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n, ensuring compatibility with various wireless devices. Additionally, the module includes advanced security features, such as support for 802.1X, WPA, and WPA2, providing robust encryption and access control to safeguard the network.
The WS-SVC-WLAN-1-K9 can also handle network load balancing and optimises wireless traffic, enhancing performance for users connected to the network. By consolidating wireless network management into a single point, this module reduces complexity in mixed network environments while still maintaining the flexibility and control needed for an enterprise-grade solution. It supports QoS (Quality of Service) mechanisms to prioritise certain types of traffic, such as voice and video, over others, ensuring critical applications run smoothly over the wireless network.
This Cisco Wireless LAN Services Module is ideal for businesses that need a centralised approach to wireless network deployment and management, especially in environments where reliability and security are key considerations.
