I just ordered an NX5500 and was about to buy 115 more AP7632s on top of the ones we have already. I just found out that the AP7632 is about to be EOS. Would AP310I-FCC or AP305C-FCC be compatible with the NX5500? Do they run on WiNG5 or WING7? And would there be a way to control both the 7632 with either of those other APs or would I be better off just replacing what we already have?

Hello Seth,

You may want to look at the AP310e/i or AP410e/i series. The AP305C AP is cloud based. The AP3xx/4xx are WiNG 7 APs that are supported by the NX5500 controller once upgraded to WiNG 7. All Existing AP75xx and AP76xx devices will have to brought up to 7.5.1.2 as well.

I would recommend you contact your Extreme Networks account manager in this regard.

I hope this answers your question.

Here are the WiNG 7 supported APs:

The above can be adopted by a WiNG 7 NX5500 controller.

Thank you,

Can the outdoor AP-7562 be upgraded to wing 7? Or is there a similar outdoor model that would be compatible with the nx5500?

You should be able to upgrade the AP7632 to wing 7

Thank you,

Chris

Thanks guys I'll look more into these APs. Do you know if AP7632 can update to wing 7 or is it stuck on wing 5?
