Summit WM Wireless Controllers

NB: Images are indicative only

The modular architecture of the Summit WM200 and Summit WM2000 controllers offer the scalability and flexibility required in the fast changing wireless environment. Summit WM200 and Summit WM2000 are modular in design with field replaceable service blades. Each controller includes redundant and hot swappable power and fan modules. Summit WM200 and Summit WM2000 offer single-system scalability up to 200 access points for coverage of large enterprise campuses down to small branch offices. In addition, an organization can install multiple Summit WM systems that enable up to tens of thousands of users to transparently roam across the facility. Summit WM200 and Summit WM2000 controllers enable unified services and policies across wired and wireless networks, which reduce network complexity and simplify management.

The Summit WM series offers common functionality across all WLAN controllers. With extended roaming domains and fast cross-subnet roaming, it is perfectly suitable for enterprise voice applications. Extreme Networks wireless QoS solution maintains the correct traffic priority from client to destination. Over the air, latency sensitive traffic is given priority access using either the SpectraLink Voice Protocol (SVP) or 802.11e/Wireless Multimedia (WMM) priority management. The Summit WM QoS capabilities include standards-based Call Admission Control (CAC) to manage traffic on the wireless network. With Unscheduled Automatic Power Save Delivery, Summit WM helps extend the battery life of Wi-Fi handsets.

Dynamic Radio Frequency (RF) management automatically sets the optimal channel and RF power settings upon startup and maintains them during operation. Security is a key concern with any wireless installation and the Summit WM series products offer leading authentication, encryption, access, and intrusion detection capabilities. Combined with wired switches from Extreme Networks, and over 10 years of implementing large-scale enterprise networks, Summit WM is ideal for demanding wireless applications.
