ArrowSpan Unveils its Indoor High-Power Wi-Fi Mesh Network Solution MeshAP 1180
Santa Clara, Calif., February 21, 2007 - ArrowSpan Inc., a global provider of Wi-Fi mesh solutions, today unveiled its latest Wi-Fi mesh product, the MeshAP 1180. The newest addition to ArrowSpan's list of Wi-Fi mesh equipment provides greater signal strength to indoor deployments, using 200mW (23dBm) and transmits power with peak power of up to 1W.
"The MeshAP 1180 is a long range, high-power access point which will enable our customers to cover a larger area with fewer MeshAPs at a lower cost, and provide them with the best signal possible," said Max Lu, President/CEO of ArrowSpan.
At 23dBm, the MeshAP 1180 is an industrial strength access point, which can provide Wi-Fi access to a broad area with fewer units. With 23dBm (200mW) the MeshAP 1180 can boost node to node distance at a transmit rate of 54Mbps downstream speed to 300m (980ft) in open space, greatly improving the download strength and throughput.
ArrowSpan's dual radio design provides better Wi-Fi coverage, and can expand internet hot spots to hot zones effortlessly by using Wi-Fi mesh technology with plug-n-play installation. The company's unique technology has incorporated the software into every single MeshAP Access Point, therefore, eliminating the need for costly controllers or servers; and with the user friendly mesh manager interface, it is now easier than ever to set up and manage a Wi-Fi network.
ArrowSpan's MeshAP 1180 will be available March 2007 online at www.arrowspan.com
