3Com simplifies deployment of wireless links in remote sites

MARLBOROUGH, Mass. — 3Com Corp. recently announced a new enterprise-class wireless mobility solution that simplifies the complexity of deploying secure wireless connectivity in branch and remote offices. 

The new solution, which features a wireless switch and managed access points, enables business users with laptop computers to securely access information databases, e-mail and the Internet with the speed and efficiency needed for a mobile workforce.

Enterprises with branch offices as well as schools, universities, healthcare institutions and government-run public access locations, can use the 3Com branch office wireless products to continue evolving their networks on the path to unified wired/wireless networks with superior security and RF (radio frequency) management. 

Today, 3Com delivers secure converged solutions that integrate an advanced form of secure wireless roaming, rogue detection and RF management technology into existing wired networks without disruption.

"3Com is one of the very few major vendors that can supply both wired and wireless products for enterprise customers to advance their networks," said Aaron Vance, senior analyst of the Synergy Research Group. 

"The combination of wireless and wired networks, coupled with strong security and convergence applications, will become increasingly important to enterprises of all sizes, as these technologies continue to become more prominent in the workplace," Vance added.
