Wifi Revolution

D-Link , a provider of end-to-end computer networking solutions, welcomed the final ratification of the 802.11n standard for wireless networks. All of the company’s 11n WiFi (News - Alert) home routers and business solutions now comply with the latest wireless technology.

 

 

As one of the first networking companies to implement the updated draft 2.0 of the standard into its products, D-Link (News - Alert) worked with major semiconductor manufacturers and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (I-EEE) Standards Review Committee (RevCom) early in the development process.

 

 

 “The high-performance 802.11n standard has taken wireless home networking to new levels of consumer acceptance and satisfaction,” said AJ Wang, chief technology officer for D-Link. “It has become the de facto platform for moving data, especially high-bandwidth files such as video, audio, gaming and photos, throughout the home.”

 

 

According to D-Link, there has been a growth in acceptance of 802.11n with Ethernet-like performance levels without new wiring. The company’s 802.11n products offer better quality at affordable prices and a variety of features and benefits, like quality of service to prioritize high-bandwidth data for faster transmission, the latest Web security technology (WEP, WPA and WPA2) and backward compatibility with previous wireless standards (802.11b and 802.11g).

 

 

Organizations can choose from D-Link’s family of 802.11n wireless solutions, including the DAP-2590 AirPremier N PoE Access Point (News - Alert) (AP), DAP-2553 AirPremier N Selectable Dual Band AP, and DAP-3520 AirPremier N Exterior PoE Selectable Dual Band AP.

 

 

“We have been confident in the 802.11n standard from the beginning, and did not hesitate to build our new wireless products, including business-class access points and other networking components, around the emerging standard due to its speed and scalability,” Wang said. “Our customers now can take full advantage of this new standard, which delivers significantly higher Wi-Fi speed and range when streaming data, a boon to wireless networking in the corporate sector.”
