1 High Performance, Easy to Deploy Wireless

2 Agenda Foundry Key Differentiators Business Value Product Overview Questions

3 Poor Performance Slow Roaming DIFFICULT END-USERS Enterprise Wireless – What are the REAL Operational Issues??? … Is the wireless LAN ready?

4 High Utilization = Low Throughput Issue #1 – Poor Performance

5 High Utilization = Low Throughput RESOLUTION: Over-the-Air QoS & Contention Free Access High Utilization & High Throughput High performance High scalability High density Enterprise WLAN ready

6 Issue #2 – Deployment Limited Non-Overlapping Channels Channel Interference Add 3-Dimensions (Multiple Floors) to this and the Problem Magnifies. Automatic Radio Management or Pico-Cells for Performance and Density?

7 Channel Coordination Easy to deploy Easy to manage Easy to expand Enterprise WLAN ready RESOLUTION:Single-Channel Deployment 1 11 1

8 Issue #3 – Slow Roaming or No Roaming Clients require 200 ms to 5 seconds to roam Microsoft adds a level of complexity to this issue. Proprietary Solutions and Protocols help, but do not completely resolve the issue.

9 200ms – 5 sec between APs Traditional APs < 3 msec between APs BSSID = ZZ 00:00 BSSID = XXBSSID = YY 01:00 Channel 1 Virtual Cell Architecture Single BSSID Channel 1 Channel 6 RESOLUTION: Seamless Roaming, Single BSSID – Virtual Cell No roaming packet loss No roaming delay No roaming latency Enterprise WLAN ready

10 Foundry Key Differentiators The VALUE… With all other Wireless features and functions the same… Foundry Offers: Over the Air QoS and Contention Free Access Increases Density of End-Stations per AP 75 to 150 Users per AP 20 to 30 VoIP over WiFi Users per AP Single Channel Deployment Minimizes Pre & Post Site Survey Requirements Makes Adding AP’s Easy Eliminates Redeployment Issues Single BSSID – Virtual Cell Architecture Removes the End-Station negotiation with the AP Makes the WiFi Network similar to the Cellular Network

11 Foundry’s Product Overview – IPM Controller Based Wireless Architecture From 5 AP’s to 1000 AP’s per Controller Field Upgradeable Controllers High Availability Options Access Points Single Radio or Dual Radio Options A/B/G and/or N – Supported by All Controllers Software Upgradeable “N” options All Features supported on all Controllers & APs

12 Foundry’s IronPoint Mobility Series – Mobility Controller Product Line MC5000 MC3000 MC1000 MC500 PERFORMANCE SCALABILITY 25-150 APs 2Gbps 15-30 APs 2Gbps 5 APs 200Mbps 200-1000 APs 10Gbps

13 Foundry’s IronPoint Mobility Series – Access Point Product Line AP320 AP310 AP311 AP302 AP208 AP201 RS4000 AP150 Full 802.11n Draft 2.0 Single Radio Full 802.11n Dual Radios Full 802.11n Upgradeable 802.11n Draft 2.0 Upgradeable to 802.11n Dual 802.11a/b/g Radios Upgradeable to 802.11n Single 802.11a/b/g Radio Single 802.11n Radio Converged Voice/Data 802.11a/b/g Single 802.11a/b/g/ Radio Dual 802.11a/b/g Radios Classic Enterprise 802.11a/b/g Single 802.11b/g Radio Single 802.11a Radio Dual 802.11b/g Radios Dual 802.11a Radios

14 Foundry’s IronPoint Mobility Series – AP300 802.11n Access Points Designed for any deployment scenario, migration plan & budget 802.11n Draft 2.0 dual band AP320 & single band AP310 Upgradeable, cost-effective 802.11a/b/g AP311 & AP302 Supports 802.3af PoE and new 802.3at PoE+ Investment protection for legacy switches and seamless transition to new standards Closes the 802.11n rogue AP security gap Detects, alerts & monitors 802.11n rogue APs Maintains performance leadership for highest scalability & ease of deployment Advanced reservation-based QoS allows 64 users per radio with no performance loss due to contention. No more wasteful Pico-cells to manage high density networks Single-channel advantage eliminates complex RF planning & need for special adaptive radios. Greater coverage with fewer access points.

15 Unpredictable channel access, latency, jitter AP gets proportional share of channel as one of the clients No over-the-air QoS Predictable channel access, latency, jitter AP gets the right amount of channel access (50%) MS I D 5.56 2 6 4 8 10 12 5.36 5.385.45.44 5.465.485.55.525.54 5.42 Channel Access with Mobility Series AP Time (Sec) Over-the-air QoS 5.465.485.55.525.545.56 Time (Sec) Channel Access with Today’s 802.11 AP 2 6 4 8 10 12 5.36 5.385.45.445.42 Air Traffic Control Technology – Over-the-air QoS with Near Deterministic Channel Access

19 Traditional WLAN To minimize interference power levels are lower so cell size is smaller– requires more Access Points, cable drops, and labor Recurring site surveys Adds/moves/ changes require channel reassignment Foundry WLAN Single channel eliminates interference so full power can be used, larger areas covered so fewer devices required Access Points can be added to increase capacity as needed without a channel planning survey To survey or not to survey ….. No deployment complexity!
