SUNNYVALE, Calif., September 22, 2008 — AirMagnet Inc., the leader in security, performance and compliance solutions for wireless LANs, today announced that The University of Arizona is using the company's award-winning WLAN tools — AirMagnet Survey and AirMagnet Planner — to help optimize and plan wireless networks throughout the entire campus. Both products allow university IT staff to more effectively evaluate performance associated with existing 802.11a/b/g and "n" WLANs, and to ensure the successful deployment of new wireless networks.

With more than 5,000 wireless access points currently deployed on campus, the UA maintains a massive wireless network for a university. The campus includes approximately 115 core buildings and more than 35,000 students. Of those 115 buildings, 70 are currently wireless enabled, encompassing more than 7.5 million square feet.

"Given the sheer size of our campus, wireless is a vital part of our infrastructure and it allows our students and staff to have unprecedented mobility and access," said Ken Boynton, Senior Network Systems Analyst at The University of Arizona. "To service that network and expand it, we rely on mobile field tools that can give us instant information, allowing us to evaluate problems on-the-fly and maintain or plan high-performance wireless networks."

AirMagnet Survey enables the university to easily collect live signal, packet and spectrum data during wireless site surveys — in real-time. This allows IT staff to simulate and measure network performance in the most scientific way possible and deliver the most accurate depiction of a user's experience in a real world scenario. The result, better performing networks at the university, and happy staff and students.

In addition, the university is constantly expanding its network to include new buildings. As a matter of fact, there is a plan in place to deploy an additional 2,200 access points. AirMagnet Planner takes the guesswork out of WLAN design and installation, making it easy for the university to accurately plan and deploy new 802.11-based wireless networks. The product offers predictive mapping of Wi-Fi signal and performance, ensuring full coverage for end-users while minimizing signal bleed. Staff can easily accounts for building materials, obstructions, access point configurations, antenna patterns, and a host of other variables to ensure a high-performance deployment.

"Our products were specifically designed to help alleviate the burden of managing a complicated wireless network. The products provide all the information a user needs to quickly see the problem and tools to help solve the problem," said Chris Roeckl, vice president of marketing at AirMagnet. "After speaking with the IT staff at the university, it's great to hear that we've dramatically reduced the time associated with wireless site survey and design, and given them tools that simplify their job function."
