Xirrus Wi-Fi Array
The Xirrus Wi-Fi Array represent a unique approach to building Enterprise Wi-Fi networks.A Xirrus WiFi array houses not one but many Wi-Fi access points, and also has its own integrated wireless LAN controller. Each Xirrus array unit also has an integrated spectrum analyser, a dedicated Wi-Fi Threat Sensor, and an integrated security Firewall.
The number of radios increases through the Xirrus range - from the Xirrus XN4 with 4x Wi-Fi radios, to the Xirrus XN16 with 16x radios.
In addition, the Xirrus Wi-Fi array features a series of semi-directional, medium-gain antennas to deliver substantial WiFi network capacity and performance even from a single Xirrus array.
What's more, since a Xirrus array requires only one Category 5 / 5e / 6 cable drop and one Ethernet switch port, a single Xirus WiFi array can be used instead of multiple access points from othe WLAN vendors, delivering high-capacity, switched Ethernet-style wireless network capacity to the wireless users in healthcare, schools, offices, conferences, auditoriums, campuses, warehouses and many other environments.
Xirrus Array Architecture
Key features of the Xirrus Wi-Fi Array architecture include:- More Coverage per device - a Xirrus Wi-Fi array typically delivers 4x more coverage than traditional APs.
- More users per device - supports 100s of users per device.
- High Performance Wi-Fi - up to 8x times the bandwidth and 14x times the throughput of traditional APs.
- Keen RF management - multiple tunable radios, automatic channel selection, cell sizing, interference mitigation and load optimisation of the RF environment.
- Highly Secure Wi-Fi - integrated Wi-Fi Firewall, integrated spectrum analyser, and dedicated Wi-Fi Threat Sensor, and rogue AP blocking
- Highly Resilience - resilience at the radio, Array, uplink, backhaul and power levels.
- Line Rate Encryption - line rate encryption within the Array - means no encryption bottlenecks.
- Future Proof - a modular design and flash upgradability allows for quick field upgrades.
- Reduced Cost - typically 75% fewer devices, cabling, switch ports and installation time - compared with traditional single- or dual-radio APs.
- Layer 3 Roaming - security policies can be created for different types of users to control parameters such as time-of-day and day-of-the week access, QoS, and traffic limits.
- Location Services - wireless client locations can be mapped to building floorplans, based upon location of the client relative to the Array.
Benefits of the Xirrus Wi-Fi Array
The Xirrus Wi-Fi Array currently integrates up to 16 Wi-Fi radios with an on-board Wi-Fi controller, a Gigabit Ethernet Switch, A security Firewall, a Spectrum Analyser and a dedicated Wi-Fi Threat Sensor into a single device.Multiple radios are co-located in a circular configuration to create a radio "Array" that provides significant range, capacity, and RF management advantages. Each Integrated Access Point (IAP) uses a high gain, directional Antenna System to deliver increased transmit gain and receive sensitivity in all directions, resulting in up to 4x the coverage area of traditional AP / Wi-Fi controller architectures.
By implementing the intelligence at the edge of the network, rather than in a centralised controller, the Xirrus Array improves network efficiency, lowers latency, improves network throughput, and simplifies network deployment.
Xirrus 802.11n WiFi arrays use 3x3 MIMO technology to deliver data rates of up to 300Mbps per radio. Each Array has three built-in antennas per access point, integrating up to 60 antennas into a single device.
The Xirrus array's unique architecture is easy to install, aesthetically pleasing, and can deliver ultra-high capacity WiFi service - at lower costs than other Wi-Fi vendors such as Cisco, Aruba, Meru, Juniper / Trapeze, HP and others.
XMS - Xirrus Management System
The Xirrus Management System (XMS) provides centralised configuration and RF management, security control and policies (IDS/IPS), performance monitoring, and reporting for hundreds of Arrays across a Layer 3 network.
Xirrus XMS provides:
- Central management of the entire Wi-Fi Array network
- Continual monitoring of Wi-Fi network status and performance.
- Control and maintainnance of the Wi-Fi network configuration across all Arrays.
- Tracking and analysis of Wi-Fi network usage and growth over time.
- Faster and simpler roll-out of Wi-Fi network configuration changes.
- Automatic alerting of network issues, with drill-down troubleshooting.
