the 

This warning symbol means danger. You are in a situation that could cause bodily injury. Before you 
work on any equipment, be aware of the hazards involved with electrical circuitry and be familiar 
with standard practices for preventing accidents. Use the statement number provided at the end of 
each warning to locate its translation in the translated safety warnings that accompanied this device. 
Statement 1071
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

There is the danger of explosion if the battery is replaced incorrectly. Replace the battery only with 
the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according 
to the manufacturer’s instructions. Statement 1015

This equipment must be grounded. Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the 
absence of a suitably installed ground conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection 
authority or an electrician if you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available. Statement 1024

Ultimate disposal of this product should be handled according to all national laws and regulations. 
Statement 1040

Verify that the ambient temperature remains between 32 to 104° F (0 to 40° C), taking into account 
the elevated temperatures when installed in a rack or enclosed space.

When multiple 2504 controllers are mounted in an equipment rack, be sure that the power source is 
sufficiently rated to safely run all the equipment in the rack (input: 100 to 240 VAC, 50–60 Hz, 
output: 80 W per controller).

Verify the integrity of the electrical ground before installing the controller.

The 2504 controller works in conjunction with Cisco lightweight access points and the Cisco Wireless 
Control System (WCS) to provide system-wide wireless LAN functions. As a component of the Cisco 
Unified Wireless Network (CUWN), the 2504 controller provides real-time communication between 
wireless access points and other devices to deliver centralized security policies, guest access, Wireless 
Intrusion Prevention System (WIPS), context-aware (location), award-winning RF management, quality 
of services for mobility services such as voice and video, and OEAP support for the Teleworker solution.

The 2504 controllers supports up to 50 lightweight access points in increments of 5 access points with 
a minimum of 5 access points, making it a cost-effective solution for retail, enterprise branches, and 
small and medium-sized businesses. The 2504 controller comes with four 4 Gigabit Ethernet ports.

The 2504 controller offers robust coverage with 802.11 a/b/g and delivers unprecedented reliability 
using 802.11n with Cisco Next-Generation Wireless Solutions and Cisco Enterprise Wireless Mesh.

To best use this guide, you should have already designed the wireless topology of your network and have 
a working knowledge of how controllers function in a wireless LAN network.
