The demands on organizations' wireless networks - such as increased connection counts, bandwidth consumption, need for seamless roaming and extended perimeters - are all taxing on network performance, and complicate the management of existing 802.11 wireless network infrastructures. The challenge facing many businesses is how to preserve compatibility with legacy 802.11 technologies; enhance and optimize wireless networks through centralized management and control across all nodes of the WLAN while at the same time, maintaining maximum security.
The SonicWall Clean Wireless solutions combine high-performance 802.11n technology with enterprise-class network security appliances to deliver unparalleled wireless network security and performance, while dramatically simplifying the set-up and management of any 802.11-based wireless network.
The solution is based on SonicWall SonicPoint-N series wireless access points, which support the IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n standards, to provide secure, higher speed access to data, voice and video over high bandwidth wireless LANs. Scalable to networks of any size, SonicPoint-N wireless access points require no pre-configuration, as they are centrally configured and managed by any current SonicWall firewall - no additional wireless access controller is required. The seamless integration of wireless access points with best-in-class next-generation firewall or unified threat management firewall security featuring advanced application intelligence and control technology ensures that wireless traffic is scrutinized with the same intensity as wired network traffic.
As a result, IT administrators can build and easily manage high-performance, distributed wireless networks with unified policy management across both the wireless and wired networks.
SonicPoint-N Dual-Radio wireless access points allow the dedication of one radio to rogue access detection while the other supports users, helping meet regulatory compliance.
