AIR-CT3504-K9 is the Cisco 3504 Wireless Controller. Cisco rates it for up to 150 access points and up to 3,000 clients at 4 Gbps of throughput.
Network ports are one multigigabit Ethernet port (up to 5 Gbps) and four 1 GbE RJ-45 ports, plus a 1 GbE service port and a 1 GbE redundancy port, both RJ-45. Two PoE ports can power access points directly. Console access is by RJ-45 serial or mini-B USB, and there is one USB 3.0 port.
The controller is compact and fanless in normal operation, using fans only under certain conditions. Power is 100 to 240 VAC at 50/60 Hz, and heat dissipation is 47 W without PoE and 98 W with PoE. It measures 1.73 x 9.5 x 8.5 in (43.94 x 214.3 x 215.9 mm) and weighs 4.4 lb, and a rack-mount bracket (AIR-3504-RMNT=) is available. Perpetual AP licences use LIC-CT3504-1A for single-AP adders, and Cisco DNA licences are term-based.
Cisco announced end-of-sale on January 11, 2021; the end-of-sale date is January 31, 2021 and the last date of support is January 31, 2027. Cisco names the Catalyst 9800-L controllers (C9800-L-F-K9 and C9800-L-C-K9) as replacements.
