Motorola Intros 802.11n Products for Indoor Wireless Mesh
Motorola this week announced the Motorola RFS6000 mesh-enabled 802.11a/b/g/n WLAN switch and the Motorola AP-7131 tri-radio 802.11n access point.
"With the ability to support up to 48 802.11a/b/g/n APs, the RFS6000 can provide Wi-Fi coverage for up to 2,000 users," writes TMCnet's Anuradha Shukla. "In addition, the solution provides significant cost savings compared to wired Ethernet networks by completely eliminating the need to run separate voice and data cables to each user within the enterprise."
And the tri-radio AP-7131 is designed to support indoor wireless mesh over 802.11n. "With all three [radios] operational, one can be dedicated to client access, one to radio-frequency security scanning, and one to wireless mesh backhaul," notes NetworkWorld's John Cox.
