Cisco Wireless Control System (WCS) is the industry's most comprehensive management platform for lifecycle management of 802.11n and 802.11a/b/g, enterprise-class wireless networks. This robust management platform delivers a cost-effective management solution that enables IT administrators to successfully plan, deploy, monitor, troubleshoot, and report on indoor and outdoor wireless networks.As the management platform for the Cisco Unified Wireless Network, Cisco WCS supports the delivery of high-performance applications and mission-critical solutions that simplify business operations and improve productivity. It also supports Cisco CleanAir technology, a system-wide capability of the Cisco Unified Wireless Network that uses silicon-level intelligence to create a self-healing, self-optimizing wireless network. Delivering performance protection for 802.11n networks, Cisco CleanAir technology increases the reliability of wireless networks to support mission critical applications by automatically mitigating the impact of radio frequency (RF) interference.Cisco WCS is a comprehensive platform that scales to meet the needs of small, midsize, and large-scale wireless LANs across local, remote, national, and international locations. This award-winning solution gives IT managers immediate access to the tools they need, when they need them, to more efficiently implement and maintain secure wireless LANs - all from a centralized location requiring minimal IT staffing.Operational costs are significantly reduced through the Cisco WCS intuitive GUI, simplified ease-of-use, and built-in tools that deliver improved IT efficiency, lowered IT training costs, and minimized IT staffing requirements, even as the network grows. Unlike overlay management tools, Cisco WCS lowers operational costs by incorporating the full breadth of management requirements - from radio frequency to controllers to services - into a single unified platform.
