Chapter 1 Access Point Controller
System Overview
APC Overview
The Samsung Access Pointer Controller (APC) comprehensively manages the user
information and traffics while managing an Access Point (AP), which is a device that
provides wireless connection service for a user terminal in a Wi-Fi environment. There are
two types depending on the AP capacity; WEC8500 and WEC8050. It comprehensively
manages all the APs and provides services in a wireless LAN environment. Because AP
and APC are connected in tunnelling, all the user traffics are exchanged and processed.
The APC is typically installed at a position where it can be connected to a backbone
switch, core switch or router in a network of enterprise environment and it controls a
wireless LAN AP and provides the functions for Wireless LAN (WLAN) services such as
handover and QoS, security/authentication, and so on. The Samsung WEC8500 provides
its services up to 500 APs. It can provide its services up to 10,000 connected user devices.
Meanwhile, the WEC8050 can accommodate maximum 75 APs and provides the service
to maximum 1500 user devices.
The APC provides a WLAN network environment through AP management and also
provides various communication services required by enterprise customers in a wireless
environment by interoperating with other enterprise solutions. It provides Wireless
Enterprise (W-EP) solution in an enterprise environment by making the collaboration
applications such as telephone, message, or communicator, and so on, which has been
used in a legacy wire environment, be able to be used in a wireless terminal such as smart
phone, tablet PC, or notebook.
