Overview
The Cisco C9120AXI-EWC-G is an advanced access point featuring an Embedded Wireless Controller (EWC) directly integrated within the C9120AX Access Point hardware. This integration streamlines network deployment and management by consolidating controller functionality into the access point itself. With the EWC embedded within the access point, organizations benefit from simplified deployment, particularly in environments where space is limited or where distributed deployments are common. This design eliminates the need for a separate controller appliance, reducing hardware costs and simplifying network architecture. The Embedded Wireless Controller functionality empowers administrators with centralized management capabilities, enabling streamlined configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting of the wireless network. Administrators can efficiently manage access points and client devices through a single interface, simplifying network operations. The C9120AXI-EWC-G access point operates on the latest Wi-Fi 6 standard, delivering high-performance wireless connectivity and enhanced user experiences.
