Quality of Service, traffic prioritization, and advanced roaming capabilities define the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller WS-SVC-WISM2-K9, a service module blade engineered for enterprise-scale wireless deployments. This Cisco Catalyst 6500 / 7600 Service Module Blade consolidates wireless LAN control into your existing chassis infrastructure, delivering two independent WLC instances per module with support for up to 1,000 access points and 15,000 wireless clients. Built on the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) OS platform, the WS-SVC-WISM2-K9 integrates seamlessly with Cisco Prime Infrastructure, Cisco CleanAir, and Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) for unified management and visibility across your wireless network.
Network engineers benefit from stateful switchover and N+1 redundancy to ensure continuous availability, while per-SSID VLAN mapping and 802.11e / WMM enable granular traffic shaping for voice and video prioritization. The module communicates with access points via CAPWAP protocol and supports 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n standards. Security is hardened through WPA, WPA2, AES-CCMP encryption with hardware acceleration, TKIP, 802.1X, EAP authentication, and integrated rogue AP detection and containment. Intra-controller and inter-controller roaming via mobility groups ensures seamless client transitions across your wireless fabric. Each controller instance manages up to 500 access points, delivering the scalability large distributed networks demand.

The Cisco Cisco wireless LAN controller WS-SVC-WISM2-K9 Cisco wireless LAN controller is enterprise networking hardware for data-center, campus, and branch deployments. Common roles include core/distribution switching, server uplinks, top-of-rack fabric, and edge connectivity in mixed Cisco/Juniper/Arista environments.
The Cisco Cisco wireless LAN controller WS-SVC-WISM2-K9 Cisco wireless LAN controller interoperates with standard switching protocols (LACP, MLAG/VPC, 802.1Q, OSPF/BGP). For specific cross-vendor scenarios — Cisco-to-Arista MLAG peering, fabric integration with Cumulus/SONiC, or migration from legacy Catalyst — our network engineers map a compatibility plan as part of the RFQ.
