802.11n Enhances Mobile Performance

802.11n wireless networks let you create a seamless working environment by combining the mobility of wireless with the performance of wired networks. Cisco has innovative, next-generation wireless solutions that offer greater performance and extended reach for pervasive wireless connectivity. 802.11n technology delivers unprecedented reliability and up to five times the throughput of current 802.11a/b/g networks. It makes wireless networks an integral part of every type of organization by offering the following benefits:

• Data rates of up to 300 Mbps per radio support more users, devices, and mission-critical, bandwidth-intensive applications
• New multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) technology provide predictable WLAN coverage and reliable connectivity
• Next-generation wireless provides the greatest investment protection to support emerging mobility applications

Enterprise Wireless Mesh Extends Network Reach

Cisco Enterprise Wireless Mesh lets your enterprise provide wireless connectivity in indoor areas that, until now, have been difficult or impossible to wire. Without requiring wired connections, mesh access points use the 2.4-GHz frequency to deliver network access to users in hard-to-reach areas, and use the 5-GHz band to backhaul traffic to traditional access points connected to Ethernet ports. Benefits include:

• High availability through dynamic wireless mesh self-healing
• Unified architecture for indoor and outdoor networks
• Simple, flexible radio frequency (RF) coverage
• Optimal network performance for your entire enterprise facility

Extending the network beyond the reach of Ethernet wiring, Cisco Enterprise Wireless Mesh enables networking functionality for your entire enterprise and is available for the Cisco Aironet 1240 and 1130 Series access points. The Cisco Unified Wireless Network delivers the modular architecture required to implement next-generation wireless networks today, while ensuring a smooth migration path to future technologies and services.
