Ortronics/Legrand Introduces the Wi-Jack(TM) Duo, the World's Smallest Dual Band/Dual Radio Wireless AP
NEW LONDON, Conn., May 1 / -- Ortronics/Legrand, a global leader in high performance structured cabling solutions, introduces the Wi-Jack(TM) Duo, the smallest dual band/dual radio access point available today. The patent-pending Wi-Jack Duo fits into a standard wall box in the footprint of a standard faceplate and extends only 12 mm from the wall. Wi-Jack Duo utilizes thin AP technology for lower costs, higher performance and enhanced security, and integrates seamlessly into the existing structured cabling system. The Wi-Jack Duo will be unveiled for the first time at Interop Las Vegas, May 2 - 4, 2006 in Booth #141.
Wi-Jack Duo supports 802.11a/b/g operation, allowing simultaneous operation at 2.4 and 5 GHz at speeds up to 54 Mb/s, and can also be used simultaneously as a dedicated air monitor. Available with or without an additional copper workstation port for wired connectivity, it contains internal tri-band omni-directional antennas mounted safely behind the faceplate, providing optimal performance while blending aesthetically into any environment.
The functionality and intelligence of the Wi-Jack Duo is centralized within the wireless controller to deliver higher system scalability and performance, along with the ability to support new standards and services without upgrading hundreds of devices. The wireless controllers enable simple, secure and flexible management of your wireless network through policy-based security, QoS and bandwidth management, and real-time monitoring of your WLAN.
"The introduction of the Wi-Jack Duo is a significant milestone in the evolution of wireless networks. By bringing the access point into the wall outlet, we have more closely integrated the WLAN into the existing structured cabling infrastructure," states Mark Panico, president of Ortronics/Legrand. "The Ortronics Wireless Solution makes the WLAN easier to manage, more cost effective, and more secure. We've essentially eliminated the risk that was once associated with deploying a wireless network."
