Linksys (News - Alert), a provider of advanced solutions for wireless connectivity, has launched its business grade wireless access points to extend its reach within the arena of business networking solutions. Developed with an aim to fulfill the needs of business enterprises for establishing a fast, highly secure and reliable wireless network, the two new wireless-n access points introduced by the company can also be used for upgrading an already existing wireless infrastructure, and can be deployed both as an access point and a range extender as well.

As the consumer adoption of connected notebooks, smartphones and tablets has been surging within personal and business environments, consumption of multimedia and video content upon the networks has also been increasing rapidly. Based upon the well known 802.11n wireless technology, Linksys Business Wireless-N Access Points offer a fast and robust wireless network. Additionally, it extends support for various enhanced features such as Power over Ethernet, Rogue AP Detection and 802.11X supplicant.

“Wi-Fi is far more crucial to businesses these days – and is being deployed for many reasons. In office environments wireless enables employees to work anywhere, have fast and free access to the web on mobile devices and enables new experiences such as voice over IP and video conferencing,” commented Steven Lin, director of product management at Linksys Business. “At the same time hotels, retail stores and restaurants use Wi-Fi for hospitality purposes and in production, and in logistics facilities it is used to connect handheld devices for real-time inventory control. All businesses have one thing in common though; they all want their business processes to run smoothly which requires reliable solutions like we are offering with Linksys Business.”

Business or personal customers can leverage the Linksys Wireless-N Access Points as Wi-Fi access points or range extenders for connecting their entire range of notebooks, smartphones, tablets and other Wi-Fi devices both to the network and the Internet as well.

In January 2014, Linksys announced the expansion of its small business solutions with a line-up of indoor and outdoor IP surveillance cameras and a network video recorder for remote and live monitoring, playback and recording. The line-up offers four new 1080p IP surveillance cameras, available with dome and bullet options and additional features such as night vision, weatherproof, IK10 vandal-proof housing, remote access, zoom, pan and tilt features plus more.
