Products - The System Need

Strix Systems offers a complete wireless local area network system, drawing on the parallels of the successful wired network and providing all of the expected management and security that enterprise network managers have come to expect.

Many enterprises have delayed a decision on the implementation of wireless LANs due to concerns about a systems approach and security. Most of today’s WLAN offerings are not truly systems…they are an assembly of disparate elements. Typical offerings consist of access points and a network controller. The access points are typically limited to one, perhaps two, RF technologies. The network controller processes all traffic, and as such, is a single point of failure. Access points often operate autonomously and network administrators must separately configure each individual access point. Generally, these solutions don’t scale well, and often require installation of security software on each mobile device.

By contrast, Strix Systems’ Access/One® Network was designed as one cohesive, secured and managed system. It is a highly secure, flexible, scalable, and the highest performing system on the market with the lowest latency. Strix wireless mesh networks offer:

  • Advanced Security (standards-based and enhanced, system-wide)
  • Dynamic Operation (self-discovery, self-tuning and self-healing)
  • Unique ability to automatically and transparently form a mesh between Network Nodes
  • Network Management (monitor, configure, diagnose and meter)
  • Traffic Prioritization and Control (switching and routing)
  • Enhanced User Mobility and Tracking
  • Supports multiple radios - 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11a, 4.9Ghz etc. within a single Network Node
  • Supports multiple RF channels - licensed and unlicensed
  • Secure high-speed roaming between Network Nodes without requiring re-login
  • Wireless Architect Software, a planning and design tool that simplifies deployment

The Access/One Network is a better idea that makes the enterprise wireless network every bit as smart, flexible, and secure as your wired network.
