More Bandwidth

Bandwidth has become critical to the success of Wi-Fi networks, requiring more radios across more channels.


Unlike the competition's thin APs, the Xirrus Wi-Fi Arrays are able to supply sufficient bandwidth to replace Ethernet to the desktop by incorporating the following into a single device:

  • 4, 8, 12, and 16 802.11abgn radios
  • Wi-Fi controller and multi-Gigabit switch
  • Full line-rate encryption engine for all users
  • Directional antenna system for large coverage area
  • Modular, upgradeable architecture

 

Combining these functions with intelligence at the network edge results in far greater bandwidth and throughput per cable drop than any other Wi-Fi product available today. In fact, Xirrus's 8-radio Wi-Fi Array provides 4X more bandwidth per cable drop than the competition's 2-radio AP.

Competitor's 2-radio AP = 600Mbps
