Overview
The Cisco C9120AXI-EWC-F is an advanced access point featuring an Embedded Wireless Controller (EWC) integrated into the C9120AX Access Point hardware. This integration streamlines wireless network management by consolidating controller functionality directly within the access point, reducing the need for additional hardware. With the EWC embedded within the access point, organizations benefit from simplified deployment and reduced infrastructure complexity. This design eliminates the need for a separate controller appliance, leading to cost savings and simplified network architecture. The Embedded Wireless Controller empowers administrators with centralized management capabilities, enabling streamlined configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting of the wireless network. It supports advanced features such as dynamic RF optimization and client roaming optimization, enhancing network performance and user experience. The Cisco Embedded Wireless Controller on the C9120AX Access Point offers organizations a cost-effective, scalable, and efficient solution for managing wireless networks, enabling them to meet the demands of modern connectivity with confidence.
