Aruba Networks' 802.11n High-Speed Wireless LAN Wins 2009 Internet Telephony Excellence Award
(Market Wire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) SUNNYVALE, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 11/24/09 --
Aruba Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: ARUN), a global
leader in wireless LANs and secure mobility solutions, today announced that
its 802.11n high-speed wireless LAN has won a 2009 INTERNET TELEPHONY
Excellence Award from Technology Marketing Corporation's (TMC) "INTERNET
TELEPHONY" magazine. The award was based on Aruba's 802.11n deployment at
the Boston Medical Center, a
626-bed hospital and academic medical center located in Boston's historic
South End. Aruba's 802.11n solution provided a flexible wireless
infrastructure on which the hospital could reliably and securely deliver
clinical data, Vocera voice, and guest Internet access applications.
Aruba offers a wide range of 802.11n solutions including the recently
announced, value-priced AP-105 Access Point and the top-of-the-line 3x3
MIMO AP-124/125 802.11n Access Points. Designed to meet the demanding
requirements of the largest enterprises, the competitively priced AP-105
offers enterprise-class security, high throughput, streaming video support,
and other key features previously available only in more expensive devices.
The AP-124/125 Access Points feature 803.2af Power over Ethernet (PoE)
operation, dual gigabit Ethernet ports with Secure Jack access control,
high throughput rates over long ranges, and FIPS 140-2 validation. The
AP-105, AP-124, and AP-125 are all covered by Aruba's limited lifetime warranty.
To ensure that wireless devices work at peak performance at all times,
Aruba's Adaptive Radio Management (ARM) technology automatically optimizes
Wi-Fi performance even in challenging RF environments. By automating site
surveys and using infrastructure-based controls to optimize the performance
of Wi-Fi clients in real-time, ARM helps ensure that applications have
sufficient network resources, including airtime, to operate reliably. ARM
works in tandem with Aruba's policy-enforcement firewall, Quality of
Service controls, and traffic management features to enable data, voice,
video, nurse call, telemetry, and guest traffic to run simultaneously over
a commonly shared Wi-Fi infrastructure yet perform as if using dedicated
networks.
ARM has been demonstrated to increase 802.11n throughput by more than 200
percent in a mixed-client network (see Farpoint Group white paper "Advances In Wireless Infrastructure
Control"), and to enable the simultaneous transmission of 15 or more
high-definition video channels over 802.11n at sites such as Liberty
University. More details about how ARM improves video transmission can be
found in "I Can See Clearly Now: Bringing Wireless Broadband Into
Focus," a free white paper available from Aruba's Web site.
"The editors of 'INTERNET TELEPHONY' were pleased to grant Aruba with an
INTERNET TELEPHONY Excellence Award for their achievements in advancing IP
communications and providing genuine solutions in the marketplace," said
Erik Linask, Group Editorial Director of 'INTERNET TELEPHONY.'" "Aruba's
802.11n solution has made an incredible contribution to IP Communications
and has also delivered great solutions for its clients," said Rich Tehrani,
CEO, TMC.
