Of course, all Insight managed switches GCxxxP/PP and the WAC505/WAC510 are compatible. To gain the integrated management capabilities, using Insight devices is mandatory.

Hi thanks for your quick response we are currently reviewing our alternatives and we are going to purchase the products after the weekend. Our product provider had the WAC510 available for a discouted price of 100$, but i'm going to look into his price for the 505 model as well. Is routing the only feature i lose when switching between the wac510 to the wac505?
