The Brocade Mobility RFS7000 Controller is a high-performance member of
Brocade’s Wireless Controller family. The Mobility RFS7000 Controller provides
centralized Wireless LAN (WLAN) configuration and management by coalescing a
network “intelligence” previously spread across physically distributed access
points. By replacing access points with simpler access ports (or “thin” access
points), the Mobility RFS7000 Controller becomes a WLAN’s single point of contact,
thus reducing wireless networking complexity by moving management out of the
ceiling and into the wiring closet. In addition, through the use of patented Virtual AP
architecture, the Mobility RFS7000 Controller lets you create multiple WLANs
without changing or adding to the existing wired network infrastructure.
