Can i join an Extreme AP5010 to WiNG OS NX7500

[john_miles]

Are newer WiFi6E APs e.g. 5010 compatible with the WiNG OS architecture i.e. NX7500?

If not what are my on-premise controller options for the WiFi6E APs?

Hello John,

The release notes should let you know if they are supported. 

In WiNG 7.9.3.0 both the NX7500 and AP5010 are supported so you should not have any problems getting the APs adopted by this controller in this firmware version. 

7.9.3.0 release notes: https://documentation.extremenetworks.com/release_notes/Wing/9037764-02_Wing_v7_9_3_0_Release_Notes....

The other on-prem options would be the VX9000 or CX9000 controllers. 

I hope this helps,

BR,

I found the data sheet for VX9000. Is there a datasheet for CX9000 as well?
