What is the new IEEE 802.11n ?

James Galbraith writes for Macworld, “With the help from our sister publication, PC World, we’ve been running the WorldBench 5 real-word benchmark suite on all of our Intel systems to gauge cross-platform performance…As you can see, the Macs running Windows gave these PCs a run for their money, with the 2.16GHz MacBook Pro turning in the fastest scores on three of the five individual tests.” Read more!

The Cisco ASA 5500 Series provides a flexible, full-featured platform forVPNdeployments. Secure, remote-access sessions can be established from either an SSL-capable Web browser or a VPN client, allowing for maximum flexibility and application access.

With the Cisco ASA 5500 Series, proper access control, application inspection, and threat mitigation can be designed as part of the VPN solution without any additional cost or design, deployment, or operational complexity. Administrators can define a single network policy to provide unparalleled security, while maintaining an accessible network environment.

By taking advantage of Cisco’s depth of VPN expertise, enterprises can deploy a single integrated platform with broad support for core enterprise applications, ease of management, and deployment flexibility.

In January 2004 IEEE announced that it had formed a new 802.11 Task Group (TGn) to develop a new amendment to the 802.11 standard for wireless local-area networks. The real data throughput is estimated to reach a theoretical 540 Mbit/s (which may require an even higher raw data rate at the physical layer), and should be up to 100 times faster than 802.11b, and well over 10 times faster than 802.11a or 802.11g. It is projected that 802.11n will also offer a better operating distance than current networks.

I know serious work is being done on Philippine’s version of windows, but just got hold of this and thought I would just share it for fun.

The Cisco Wireless Mesh Networking solution is the industry’s first easy to deploy, operate and manage city wide wireless network infrastructure. Solutions can be deployed in the city infrastructure at government and public buildings, along the streets on lamp-post, and at intersections on traffic signal systems.

Industry’s 1st Intelligent Wireless Mesh Solution

• Intelligent Wireless Routing Protocol
• Wireless Mesh Management System
• UnifiedWireless LAN Architecture

Cisco Wireless Control Systems—Cisco Wireless Control Systems provide a powerful foundation that allows IT managers to design, control, and monitor outdoor wireless networks from a centralized location, simplifying operations and reducing total cost of ownership.

Cisco Wireless LAN Controller—The CiscoWireless LAN Controllers define an innovative architecture for large-scale wireless LANs by considering individual access points as part of a larger system, and centralizing certain functions of the 802.11 protocol. Based on the Lightweight Access Point Protocol (LWAPP) and operating as part of this architecture, the Cisco Aironet 1500 Series derives systemlevel management of device configuration, security policies, and RF parameters while providing layer 2 or layer 3 mobility.

Outdoor Wireless Mesh Access Point—With dual band simultaneous support for IEEE 802.11a and 802.11b/g standards, the Cisco Aironet 1500 Series outdoor wireless mesh access point employs a patentpending
Adaptive Wireless Path protocol to form a dynamic wireless mesh network between remote access points, and delivers secure wireless access to any Wi-Fi compliant client.
