Architecture

The Cisco Aironet 1500 Series is a component of the

Cisco Wireless Mesh Networking

the wireless LAN to provide scalable management, advanced security, seamless mobility, proven

reliability, and mobility services, such as multiple Service Set Identifiers (SSIDs) and quality of

service (QoS) for voice, video, and data applications. The Cisco Aironet 1500 Series is managed

and monitored by Cisco wireless LAN controllers and the Cisco Wireless Control System (WCS).

It supports zero-touch configuration deployment to easily and securely join the mesh network.

Flexible, high-powered, high-sensitivity radio options, along with a selection of high-gain antennas,

allow coverage to be scaled as capacity needs increase. The Cisco Aironet 1500 Series is

compliant with Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2) which employs hardware-based Advanced

Encryption Standard (AES) encryption between wireless nodes to provide end-to-end

enterprise-class security.

Solution. The unified architecture centralizes key functions of

Benefit

● Forms a wireless mesh network between nodes.

● Designed specifically for a multiradio platform to handle acute environmental

interference as well as self-interference, optimizing

system-level network performance.

● Dynamically optimizes traffic routes between nodes for high network resiliency

and high system capacity.

● Self-heals from interference or outages, reducing management costs.

● Optimal Parent Selection scans all available channels to ensure that the mesh

optimizes network capacity.

● Exclusion listing provides exponential backoff and advance intelligence at the

access point to exclude as a parent any access point through which a link to the

controller cannot be established.

● Bridges remote networks over wireless in a point-to-point or point-to-multipoint

configuration, eliminating leased lines or providing an alternative backhaul.

● Allows remote peripherals, such as security cameras, to be bridged to the

network.

● Wireless link-distance adjustment allows the 802.11 protocols to be tuned for

optimal performance over extended bridging distances.
