See all-functional smart wireless switches for small and medium-sized enterprises in NETGEAR

Smart wireless switches are still quite common. Here we will introduce a full-featured smart wireless switch for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises launched by NETGEAR. Here we will share with you, hoping it will be useful to you. Recently, NETGEAR, a global growing commercial network expert and wireless network pioneer, announced at the InteropLasVegas2007 conference that it would be the first full-featured wireless controller designed to meet the wireless infrastructure needs of growing small and medium-sized enterprises: proSafe smart wireless switch (WFS709TP ).

ProSafe smart wireless switch is a wireless controller with rich features. It provides small and medium-sized companies with the ability to configure, control, and manage up to 48 wireless access points distributed in different wireless infrastructure locations, provides enterprise-level connectivity and secure wireless LAN functions.

The ProSafe smart wireless switch with built-in Ethernet power supply function allows wireless devices to roam securely and seamlessly in wireless networks. Advanced security features enable wireless devices to communicate securely over the network. Using an embedded RF planning tool, the ProSafe smart wireless switch enables network administrators to enter Building and workplace parameters to calculate the RF Characteristics of a building and to plan the optimal location for placing access points. In addition, the wireless Controller supports IntelliFi that automatically configures radio parameters including transmit power levels, channels, load balancing, and interference avoidance.™RF management functions provide continuous and consistent wireless coverage. The ProSafe smart wireless switch has built-in enterprise-level security features, including support for RADIUS and AAAServer, enabling the company to unify wired and wireless networks. The ProSafe smart wireless solution for network parts is composed of ProSafe smart wireless switch WFS709TP) and ProSafe802.11g thin Wireless Access Point WGL102) and ProSafe dual-band thin Wireless Access Point (WGL102) the ProSafe "thin" Wireless Access Point.

VivekChugh, Senior Product Line Manager of the network equipment company, explained: "Until recently, the selection of wireless infrastructure for expansion of small and medium-sized enterprises was very limited, that is, multiple independent access points were managed and configured separately. As enterprises constantly expand their wireless infrastructure by deploying multiple independent access points, this naturally leads to management and security nightmares. Since each access point must be managed independently, such deployment greatly limits the scalability of the wireless infrastructure and increases the cost of ownership. The ProSafe smart wireless solution enables SMEs to easily and cheaply deploy scalable, secure, and feature-rich wireless networks that are seamlessly integrated with existing wired infrastructure. The powerful enterprise-level feature set of ProSafe smart wireless solutions enables network administrators to install access points, predict the coverage of each access point, and centrally manage and execute network security policies, it provides seamless roaming in the workplace, improving employees' productivity and minimizing network complexity."

ProSafe™Smart wireless switch (WFS709TP)

ProSafe™The smart wireless switch (WFS709TP) is a wireless controller that enables SMEs to deploy an enterprise-class centralized Wireless LAN architecture to control and manage multiple wireless access points distributed in different locations in the workplace. The smart wireless switch provides end users with robust functions, including the ability to seamlessly roam across multiple access points, centralized security and management, built-in RF planning and management functions, and positioning and tracking. It has eight 10/100 ports with built-in Ethernet power supply (PoE) Support for convenient access point deployment, it also has a 10/100/1000 uplink port that can be connected to more Ethernet power supply switches to support deployment of more wireless access points. The port 10/100/1000 can also be connected to the backbone network line. In addition to advanced security features including 802.1x, EAP-PEAP, EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS, 802.11i, MAC address filtering, SSID, and location-based authentication, WFS709TP also has enterprise-level security features, including support for RADIUS and LDAP-based AAA servers, so that the company can unify wired and wireless access without compromising security.

An independent WFS709TP can support 16 wireless access points and 256-bit users. ProSafe™The smart wireless solution supports up to three smart wireless switches, which support up to 48 including ProSafe™802.11a/g dual-band lightweight Wireless Access Point (WAGL102), ProSafe™802.11g lightweight Wireless Access Point (WGL102) and ProSafe™ProSafe access point for network components, including the dual-band wireless access point (WAG102.

To maximize the performance and efficiency of wireless infrastructure, WFS709TP integrates IntelliFiRF management to automatically configure all wireless parameters to support continuous wireless coverage and mobility. Network administrators can use built-in planning tools to input floor plans, floor quantities, building dimensions, required coverage, and fault tolerance overlap factors to predict the RF features of a building, plan the optimal location for placing access points and display the predicted coverage. To ensure network elasticity of key task applications, WFS709TP supports fault-tolerant hardware with industry-standard N + 1 wireless controller redundancy and Access Point Crossover, to provide a wireless network that guarantees the highest availability without spof.
