Wireless AP Access Controller | Indoor

The IP-COM CW500 and CW1000 Wireless Access Controllers are powerful hardware solutions designed to centrally manage and optimise IP-COM access point networks. Built for scalable deployments, these controllers allow seamless configuration, monitoring, and control of multiple access points from a single interface.

Ideal for business, hospitality, and campus environments, the CW500 supports up to 32 access points, while the CW1000 scales up to 512 access points and thousands of connected users. With automatic AP discovery, batch configuration, and real-time monitoring, network administrators can efficiently manage large wireless infrastructures with minimal effort.

Designed for easy deployment, both models integrate into existing networks without requiring topology changes. Advanced management features such as SSID configuration, VLAN support, traffic monitoring, and firmware upgrades ensure reliable and secure wireless performance across all connected devices.
