wism vs controller

[ericgarnel]

I am getting ready to submit requests for equipment replacement and I am considering replacing our 4402s. I was not able to see any perf comparisons between the wism and the 4404 units. I assume that the wism would be better given that it would be on the 6506 backplane vs the gig ports.

i was wondering if anybody had any info regarding this

thanks

The WiSM is actually two 4404s so the specs should be the same with a couple of exceptions such as the WiSM supports up to 300 APs, the 4404 is 100. Max throughput per control is 8Gbps for WiSM, 4Gbps for the 4404. You may find what you're looking for in the Q&A for the WiSM.
