Need to replace wires with wireless?

Why or How to Go Wireless in Denver, with the high speeds of 802.11n, wireless is as fast as wired networks. In fact, its raw performance exceeds Fast Ethernet. Users quickly adjust to the freedom of not having to plug in. Many new client devices no longer include Ethernet at all. These features combined, it isn't hard to see why wireless is often treated as the primary network access method – not just when mobility or portability are needed, but for routine desktop work.

Replacing Ethernet demands more than just raw speed, of course. A network needs simple management and design. It needs to scale to any requirement, be it density or bandwidth, and applications that leverage the power and flexibility of mobility. And it needs the physical security that wired users take for granted. Meru provides all of these in its 802.11n products, along with the flexibility of virtualization.

Though there's no reason to scrap existing wired networks, Meru customers are already designing new clinics, classrooms and even office buildings without data cabling to every desktop. Ethernet will always have a purpose, but now it is retreating into the network core.

The AMTS LAN system lets you:

Simplify
Meru brings the simplicity of virtualization to the edge network. Users gain the freedom of mobility. IT gains the flexibility to reallocate capacity on demand. Applications get Ethernet-grade performance.

Scale
The virtualized wireless LAN is easier to scale than either wired Ethernet or legacy 802.11 systems. It can handle any application or load, with full speed 802.11n in either band.

Secure
Wireless networks already lead in encryption and access control. Meru can give also them the physical security that wired Ethernet users take for granted.

Layer 1-7 Security – Physical and Virtual

Most wireless vendors focus on only one layer of the networking stack, blocking packets at either the access point or controller. Meru extends protection throughout the stack, from physical security that contains the radio signals of a network within a set boundary to application security that customizes access rights for each user and recognizes even encrypted data flows.

Perimeter Threat Defense

Wired networks are naturally protected by physical barriers like walls, but walls are no obstacle to radio waves. Meru Networks' RFBarrier™ acts as a virtual wall for wireless transmissions, selectively blocking transmissions from the network as they pass a geographic perimeter, like a floor, a building or a campus. From outside, the network is undetectable, while other 802.11 and cellular networks are unaffected. From inside, the wireless network offers the same high performance services that users expect from Meru.

Connection Threat Defense

Meru's continuous wireless network security scanning prevents intruders from connecting to a network at all. AirFirewall™ intercepts and blocks unwanted packets in flight, stopping them before they even reach. Rogue access point detection functions at all times without a separate overlay network, even when access points are serving voice clients. For users who need the strongest government-grade security, Meru's FIPS gateway offloads encryption to an appliance designed to meet the industry's toughest certification standards.

Network Threat Defense

Meru's wireless network security doesn't stop once users have connected to the network. The Virtual Port enables per-user policies tied into RADIUS authentication, making sure that each device can only access resources that match its capabilities and its user's job description. Meru's application firewall classifies traffic based on flow signatures as well as deep packet inspection, meaning that it even works with encrypted applications.

Remote Threat Defense

Wireless networks are everywhere, frequently tempting mobile employees to connect over a link that lacks enterprise-class security. Meru's Telecommuter Access Point lets them use the enterprise network instead, accessing the same resources available inside the enterprise and subject to the same security policies
