Meru Wireless LANs centralize security and management and distribute air intelligence to achieve a wireless network with unprecedented reliability, security, quality of service and scalability. The Meru solution creates a wireless network that allows enterprises to leverage their existing investment in wired infrastructure.
- Market Opportunity
- The use of wireless LANs will continue to grow in the enterprise through 2006, with voice over WLAN (VoWLAN) a particularly promising area of growth, as use skyrockets from 6% currently to 27% by August 2006 (Infonetics Research). Although e-mail and Web browsing continue to be the most popular WLAN applications, Infonetics reports that enterprises are showing interest in more complex applications.
