For high-density and large-scale environments, the Native WAC (integrated into the core switch software/hardware, like on the S12700E or S16700) is the preferred recommendation. Unlike a standalone AC, a Native WAC leverages the massive switching capacity of the core switch's forwarding chips to process wireless data at line rate. It simplifies the network by eliminating the need for external AC hardware and provides the scalability required to manage thousands of APs and tens of thousands of terminals within a single management framework.
