Wired + Wireless + Cloud Convergence

Benefits of a unified wired + wireless network:

• Services and updates delivered via public or

private cloud

• Unified policies across APs, Switches

• Easy to deploy and scale from small to large

enterprise environments with thousands of

access points and switches

• Lower operating costs by reducing complexity

and simplifying management, and single point

of support

• Combining enterprise grade hardware

with flexible cloud options and

services, to bring a full enterprise

solution for your access.
