The Trapeze Mobility Exchange™ MX-2800 is the next generation Smart Mobile™ WLAN controller for medium to large size enterprise WLAN deployments. It brings unprecedented scalability, manageability, reliability and resiliency features to WLAN networks, mirroring the user experience of wired networks. Powered by Trapeze’s unique hardware-accelerated WLAN processing engine and a high speed security co-processor, the MX-2800 scales to support the most demanding wireless applications indoors and outdoors, including voice over Wi-Fi for thousands of users. It offers 28 Gbps of throughput and supports up to 512 802.11n APs while providing always-on availability and hitless failover with no service interruption, even in the unlikely event of a controller failure.

The Trapeze Mobility Exchange™ (MX™) family of intelligent WLAN controllers provides the platform for Trapeze Smart Mobile™ wireless networks. Smart Mobile is the only WLAN architecture that offers intelligent switching, which combines both centralized and distributed data forwarding based on the requirements of the underlying application. Operating in conjunction with Trapeze Mobility Point™ (MP™) access points, and Mobility System Software™(MSS), MX controllers can offload policy enforcement and data forwarding to the MPs, resulting in optimized traffic flow, radically reduced latency, and massive scalability.

The MX-2800 is the latest generation of WLAN controllers from Trapeze Networks. Designed for data center or distributed wiring closet installations, the MX-2800 enables seamless and secure deployment of enterprise class wireless networks over any existing L2/L3 network without disruption.

The MX-2800 combines L2 Ethernet switching, stateful per user and per service firewalls, wireless intrusion protection, 802.1Q trunking and per VLAN spanning tree (PVST+), complete wired to wireless quality of service (QoS), and automated RF management. Clusters of MXs form a Mobility Domain™ service which provides seamless roaming, intrusion protection and RF management over large single site wireless LAN deployments. A Network Domain™ interconnects Mobility Domains to
support multiple sites and span wide geographic regions with secure, seamless mobility applications and Smart Mobile services.
