Huber & Suhner Uses AirMagnet Survey PRO on UK Train Lines
Posted on: Thursday, 25 October 2007, 15:00 CDT
AirMagnet, a provider of security, performance and compliance solutions, has announced that Huber & Suhner, a technology provider, is using the WLAN site survey tool, Survey PRO, to speed deployment and optimize configuration for public Wi-Fi networks for train lines in the UK.
Wi-Fi usage is growing rapidly in commuter travel, yet deploying wireless networks for the transportation sector can prove particularly challenging. Train network operators, for instance, require antennas to be hidden, which creates major performance and coverage challenges when positioning the access points during deployment. AirMagnet Survey PRO overcomes these difficulties by allowing rapid, intuitive modelling of different deployment scenarios to determine optimum performance settings.
AirMagnet Survey PRO automatically gathers critical Wi-Fi and RF spectrum information using multiple data collection methods, and then generates detailed Wi-Fi performance maps of the results. It is able to account for all potential factors, including access point channel, transmission power, IP address, antenna type, orientation and height, and more. After simulating network deployment, AirMagnet Survey PRO also generates a report with ideal configuration settings for optimum network performance.
