Hewlett-Packard Wireless Network

If you’re thinking about building a wireless network, or replacing the one that you have now, Hewlett-Packard should be on your short list. The video here explains some of the advantages of ProCurve wireless networking.

If you have a wired network based on Cisco, Extreme, Enterasys, or 3Com equipment you can overlay a Hewlett-Packard wireless network with little fuss. Setting up a Hewlett-Packard wireless network is easy. Install a controller that’s either a separate rack-mounted appliance...

 






...or if you have an HP core switch, a wireless control application on a ONE module in that switch.







You can install one or more of these controllers to manage up to 200 access points, or you can cluster controllers to manage as many as 800 of them as a single managed entity.



Then you’re hanging a variety of indoor and outdoor wireless access points on your network, connecting them to POE switches. If you don’t have POE switches HP has a fine line of very inexpensive ones that can serve. Once the access points are installed, the average wireless network can be installed and secured in a matter of a few days.

You can create a graceful migration from conventional 802.11b/g to 802.11n services using these access points. Ask us how.
