The Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controllers are the intelligent, centralized control plane for your entire wireless network, engineered to be always on, secure, and deployable anywhere. Built on the modular Cisco IOS XE operating system, this platform is a foundational pillar of the Cisco Digital Network Architecture (DNA), integrating the best of RF excellence with modern software benefits.
Key Capabilities: These controllers ensure maximum Resilience and High Availability through features like Stateful Switchover (SSO) and seamless software updates (hot and cold patching), guaranteeing zero downtime for clients during planned and unplanned maintenance. They provide robust, built-in Security that acts as the network’s first line of defense, utilizing Encrypted Traffic Analytics (ETA) and Software-Defined Access (SD-Access) for unified policy and threat defense. The C9800 Series offers flexible Deployment Options, available as physical appliances (L, 40, 80), virtual appliances (CL) for cloud or private environments, or embedded on Catalyst switches, with all options providing Centralized Management via open APIs and Cisco DNA Center for automation and rich telemetry.
