 The XR Series of Xirrus Wireless Arrays
The newest Xirrus Wireless Arrays have been completely redesigned to
provide distributed intelligence, integrated switching capacity of up to 10
Gbps, increased bandwidth, and smaller size. The radios support
IEEE802.11 a, b, g, and n clients, and feature the capacity and
performance needed to replace switched Ethernet to the desktop.
Modular radios allow you to increase the number of radios, upgrade to
more powerful radios, or even upgrade later to future technologies like
802.11ac and 802.11.ad as they are introduced.
