I’m planning a large-scale wireless deployment (enterprise/campus) with multiple high-density access points (like Wi-Fi 6E/7 models). Since many modern APs rely on strong back-end processing for features like beamforming, MU-MIMO, and AI-driven traffic optimization, I’m curious:
CPU Impact: Would pairing APs with a server running an Intel Xeon 32-Core 2.7GHz (16GT/s UPI) significantly improve handling of client loads (500+ devices), or is the bottleneck typically elsewhere (like NIC/switching)?
Virtualization: For virtualized controllers (e.g., Aruba, Ruckus, or OpenWRT), does the Xeon’s high core count and UPI scalability help with low-latency packet processing?
Real-World Use: Anyone running similar setups with Xeon-powered servers for wireless management? Any benchmarks on throughput vs. consumer-grade CPUs?
