Cisco 7600 Series Router Wireless Services Module
The Cisco 7600 Series Router Wireless Services Module (WiSM) is an integrated Cisco 7600 router and
two Cisco 4404 controllers that supports up to 300 lightweight access points. The router has eight
internal Gigabit Ethernet ports that connect the router and the controller. The router and the internal
controller run separate software versions, which must be upgraded separately.
Note The WiSM is supported on Cisco 7600 series routers running only Cisco IOS Release 12.2(18)SXF5 or
later.
Note Without any other service module installed, the Cisco 7609 router chassis can support up to seven Cisco
WiSMs, and any other Cisco 7600 series router chassis can support up to six Cisco WiSMs. If one or
more service modules are installed, the chassis can support up to a maximum of four service modules
(WiSMs included). Redundant supervisors cannot be used with these maximum configurations.
