Overview

The C5215 is a new server platform from ExtremeWireless™ that helps manage up to 1000 APs in standalone mode in mid-to-high capacity deployment areas, such as stadiums, healthcare campus, and higher-education. The C5215 controller supports mixed mode deployments of 802.11ac, 802.11n, and 802.11a/b/g APs along with the ability to seasmlessly transition between wireless appliances and access points, providing scability and ease of deployment.

C5215 will be engineered to sustain up-to 20 Gbps traffic aggregation throughput. The product features 2x SFP+ interfaces capable of 10Gbps each, facilitating aggregation of very high data throughput between wireless and core network. For backwards compatibility the product also supports 2x 1 Gbps to support deployments where data throughput may not be the main requirement or that are just starting and plan to upgrade core access capacity at a later time.
