FCC Safety Compliance Statement

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,

pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection

against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can

radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may

cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference

will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio

or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on.

Try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

•Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

•Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

•Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is

connected.

Safety Considerations

•Verify that the ambient temperature remains between 32 to 104° F (0 to 40° C), taking into

account the elevated temperatures when installed in a rack or enclosed space.

•When multiple WLC526 controllers are mounted in an equipment rack, be sure that the power

source is sufficiently rated to safely run all the equipment in the rack (input: 100–240VAC, 50/60

Hz, output: 48VDC, 2.08A per controller).

•Verify the integrity of the electrical ground before installing the controller.

2 Overview

The Cisco 526 Wireless Express Mobility Controller is a network appliance designed to optimize the

wireless network of small and medium-sized businesses. The mobility controller can be used with up

to six controller-based access points per controller and up to two controllers per network. The

WLC526 is a component of the Cisco Smart Business Communications System.

A core element of the Cisco Mobility Express Solution, the WLC526 works in concert with Cisco 521

Wireless Express Access Points (hereafter referred to as the AP521) and the Cisco Configuration

Assistant (CCA) to provide you with the visibility and centralized control you need to optimize

network performance. The CCA is GUI-based software that allows you to configure and manage all

the components of the Cisco Smart Business Communications System.

The WLC526 provides:

•A cost-effective solution for small and medium-sized business environments

•Standards-based enterprise-class security

•Simplified network deployment and management with automated radio resource features

•Centralized management with the CCA

•Advanced mobility services readiness to support secure Internet guest access and optimized voice

over Wi-Fi

The Cisco Smart Business Communications System is shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1 Cisco Smart Business Communications System

After performing an initial setup, you configure the WLC526 and its controller-based AP521s using

the CCA.

Choosing a Physical Location

You can install the controller on a horizontal or vertical surface. The controller’s bottom plate has two

keyhole slots that permit you to mount it on a vertical surface, such as a wall. For maximum reliability,

mount the controller while following these guidelines:

•Make sure you can reach the controller and all cables attached to it.

•Make sure that water or excessive moisture cannot get into the controller.

•Make sure that airflow through the controller is not obstructed. Leave at least 4 in. (10 cm) clear

on both sides of the controller.

•Verify that the ambient temperature remains between 32 to 104° F (0 to 40° C).

•Make sure that the controller is installed in the same building and is within 328 ft. (100 m) of

equipment connected to the 10/100BASE-T ports.

•Make sure that the power cord can reach a 100 to 240 VAC grounded electrical outlet.

Moving a Controller

If you are staging your system in a lab environment or moving a controller to new location with a

different network domain, you must remember to change the IP addresses for the AP Management,

Management, and all Dynamic interfaces to the customer’s final IP addresses before moving the

controller to the customer site or to a new location. The IP addresses can only be changed using the

controller GUI interface. The console port interface can not be used to change IP addresses.

Using the Startup Wizard

When you power up the WLC526 you must prepare it for operation on your network by using the

controller’s GUI-based startup wizard. You will need to gather some information about your network

before you start the wizard. Table 1 lists the information you need to enter into the startup wizard.
