Deployment Challenges and Problems
- Supporting 15-30 laptops per cart will exceed the capabilities of access points
- Provide a similar level of service (throughput, QoS, etc.) to applications as received in wired environments
- Advantage of mobility may increase security vulnerabilities
- Easily, quickly and cost-effectively deploy on-demand Wi-Fi connectivity to classrooms without requiring IT involvement
Solution - The Xirrus Wi-Fi Array
- Mobile Capacity - Up to 216 Mbps of bandwidth and 4X the throughput are provided by integrated, high density radios
- Application Reliability- Integrated intelligence offering QOS, VLAN, Firewall, DHCP, RADIUS, Encryption and additional services designed to guarantee a positive user experience
- Integrated Security - Embedded RF security services not only encrypt all traffic at the edge of the network, but also monitors/protects the RF environments no matter where it is located.
- Ease of Deployment and Use - Automatic configuration, channel settings, cell sizing, and security monitoring allows teaching staff to relocate cart without requiring IT support
