Wireless
Wireless LANs
(WLANs) have rapidly become a staple of enterprise
organizations, increasing end-user mobility and
productivity while giving IT managers a new set
of challenges to overcome. They must find a way
to deploy wireless in a time when staffing is stretched
and additional support demands are a key concern.
Extreme Networks®
offers two wireless product lines, each suited for
different applications and environments. For smaller
wireless deployments, Layer 2 data roaming and tight
integration with Extreme Networks switches via the
Unified Access Architecture™, Altitude 300
access points with Extreme Networks wireless-enabled
switches are the preferred choice. These products
are built on the award-winning ExtremeWare®
operating system and extend the centralized network
management of the EPICenter® management platform.
For large
wireless environments demanding Layer 3 voice-grade
roaming, mobile Quality of Service (QoS), and deployment
within any vendor's network infrastructure, Altitude
350-2 access points with the Summit® WM series
of switches are ideal.
The Summit
WM switches from Extreme Networks transform wireless
LAN from being a complicated technology to a high
performing, secure enterprise solution that is simple
to deploy and operate. The Summit WM100 and the
Summit WM1000 offer single-system scalability up
to 200 access points for coverage of large enterprise
campuses down to small branch offices. In addition,
an organization can install multiple Summit WM systems
to support deployments of thousands of access points. |
