Data Sheet 

Cisco 5700 Series Wireless Controller 

The Cisco

®

 5760 Wireless Controller (Figure 1) is an industry-leading platform designed for 802.11ac networks with 

maximum performance and services at scale, combined with high availability for mission-critical wireless networks. 

Through the Unified Access Data Plane (UADP) application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), it delivers wire-speed 

performance with services such as advanced quality of service (QoS), flexible NetFlow v9, and downloadable 

ACLs. Delivering on the One Network component of the 

 vision, the Cisco 5760 offers: 

● 

Wire-speed 60-Gbps throughput with services 

● 

Up to 1000 access points per controller and 72,000 access points in a cluster 

● 

Up to 12,000 clients per controller and 864,000 clients in a cluster 

● 

Network traffic visibility through flexible NetFlow v9 

● 

RF visibility and protection 

● 

● 

● 

● 

Access Point Stateful Switchover(AP SSO) 

● 

Application Visibility with AVC 

● 

Service Discovery Gateway

Features 

The 5760 Wireless Controller can operate in both converged access mode and centralized mode. Converged 

access mode provides a hierarchical network design that distributes the wireless data plane at the access layer on 

Cisco Catalyst

®

 switches for maximum performance and scale. Converged access mode provides maximum 

resiliency by constraining outages to smaller failure domains. Additionally, converged access mode delivers high 

availability with access point stateful failover (access point SSO), making sure SSIDs are highly available and have 

minimal effect on wireless clients. (See Tables 1 and 2)
