By Shamila Janakiraman, TMCnet Contributing Editor

Bluesocket announced the introduction of its BlueSecure (News - Alert) Trade-UP Program which enables customers in any kind of market to migrate to the newest 802.11n Wi-Fi standard, while also optimizing their existing wireless LAN (WLAN) installations.



 
Bluesocket (News - Alert) specializes in wireless access and enterprise mobility solutions. The BlueSecure Trade-UP Program allows customers to trade in any competitor’s enterprise wireless LAN equipment for 802.11n-ready solutions from Bluesocket. The company offers many simple options depending on the customer’s existing WLAN infrastructure and the desired timeframe to migrate to 802.11n.
 
For companies seeking a complete network change, the Trade-UP Program provides a one-for-one swap of wireless controllers. Customers can also buy any number of BSAP-1800 802.11 a/b/g/n Access Points as per their needs for offering full wireless service within their environment.
 
Bluesocket offers another program option which makes use of the company’s ability to support various third-party Access Points like those from 3Com, Cisco (News - Alert), Enterasys, Proxim and Motorola. This allows high flexibility for customers who are desirous of upgrading their WLAN infrastructure at the same time protecting their network investment.
 
The trade up to Bluesocket Controllers provides enhanced security and integrated enterprise-grade features like intrusion detection, client scanning, and Guest Access Services. Customers will be able to retain their third-party Access Points and also add Bluesocket BSAP-1800 Access Points if necessary.
 
The program also offers customers with Cisco Aironet or Proxim fat AP deployments to migrate cost-effectively from the limiting distributed WLAN architecture to an architecture which is optimized to scale and is easy to manage and highly secure.
 
“Cost, complexity and service disruption are a few of the challenges that customers face when upgrading their wireless network. Bluesocket’s open architecture and vendor independent interoperability ease these challenges, allowing customers to leverage their existing WLAN assets to maximize ROI and drive efficiency,” said Mads Lillelund (News - Alert), CEO and president at Bluesocket.
 
“The BlueSecure trade-up program offers several advantages, including a very cost effective path for customers ready to upgrade their WLAN infrastructure or design their network to take advantages of new standards like 802.11n,” added Lillelund.
 
The 802.11n-ready BlueSecure software platform and Bluesocket’s family of 802.11n-ready WLAN products will enable high-speed wireless networks which will offer users high security, control and QoS to support advanced network-based applications.
 
Bluesocket provides open, standards-based enterprise mobility solutions. The wireless LAN products from the company offer secure mobility to customers in the education, enterprise, government, healthcare and hospitality markets. Bluesocket’s complete wireless network solutions are reliable and simple enabling customers to increase their efficiency and hence, ROI.
