Wi-Fi solutions supplier Xirrus Inc. has successfully deployed its Rapid Deployment Wi-Fi solution for Frost & Sullivan’s Mobile & Wireless Enterprise 2007. The solution was deployed in less than 30 minute, requiring significantly less hardware and cabling than competitive solutions according to the company.
Xirrus used only three Wi-Fi Arrays to provide the required coverage and bandwidth throughout the conference center and exhibit hall. A 162Mbps Wi-Fi mesh backhaul was used to connect two of the three Arrays. The mesh stretched the Wi-Fi network allowing it to reach outside the convention area.
The Wi-Fi backhaul is the result of bonding three of the Integrated Access Points (IAPs) in each array leaving the other 13 IAPs to provide connectivity to the attendees.
J. Gerry Purdy, Ph.D, VP and chief analyst, Mobile & Wireless is impressed with the flawless Wi-Fi performance and coverage of Xirrus at their show and the efficiency of how quickly it was deployed.
“Mobile and Wireless Enterprise is known for highlighting the latest technology innovation in the industry, so it was key to have a trustworthy partner like Xirrus to provide the Wi-Fi network for our event,” said Purdy in a press release.
Utilizing an off-the-shelf Wi-Fi camera, Xirrus also displayed a live video feed of the 18th fairway of the Hyatt Grand Champions Resort and Spa. The video feed highlighted how the Xirrus architecture easily and cost effectively delivers Wi-Fi both indoors and outdoors in a campus environment enabling applications such as video surveillance.
