Xirrus Increases Radio Density to Attack Switched Ethernet Market

Tag : Radio

The Xirrus Wi-Fi Array architecture displaces both overlay Wi-Fiofferings and switched Ethernet to the desktop. The Wi-Fi Arrayintegrates 4, 8, 12, 16, or 24 802.11abg+n radios coupled to ahigh-gain directional antenna system into a single device alongwith an onboard multi-gigabit switch, Wi-Fi controller, firewall,dedicated Wi-Fi threat sensor, and an embedded spectrum analyzer.The Wi-Fi Array provides more than enough bandwidth, security, andcontrol to replace switched Ethernet to the desktop as the primarynetwork connection. The Xirrus Wi-Fi Array delivers the mostcoverage, bandwidth, throughput, and support for more users on aper device and per system basis than anything else available on themarket today - resulting in a solution that uses 75% fewer devices,cabling, switch ports, power, space, and installation time comparedwith any other offering.

The 12 and 16 radio Arrays deliver a highly resilient Gigabit Wi-Fibackbone capability today. When available, the 24 radio Array willdeliver a highly resilient Multi-Gigabit backbone capability to thewireless enterprise.

Xirrus' long term differentiation is based upon RF innovation. Thisfocus on RF innovation (specifically RF isolation, management, andshaping) has enabled the Wi-Fi Array platform (hardware andsoftware) and the patents that protect it to successfully"position" Xirrus Wi-Fi as the only viable replacementfor switched Ethernet to the desktop in the enterprise today.
