SUNNYVALE, Calif., June 2, 2009 — AirMagnet Inc., the leader in security, performance and compliance solutions for wireless LANs (WLANs), today announced the company has won the 2008 Communications Solutions Product of the Year Award. This award is given to those companies that demonstrate excellence in the advancement of voice, data and/or video communications.
"AirMagnet has proven they are committed to quality and excellence in solutions that benefit the customer experience, as well as ROI for the companies that use them," said Rich Tehrani, TMC President and Group Editor-in-Chief. "I am pleased to honor their hard work and accomplishments and look forward to more innovative solutions from them in the future."
The Communications Solutions Product of the Year Award recognizes the vision, leadership and attention to detail that are the hallmarks of the award. The most innovative products and services brought to market in 2008 were selected as recipients of this year's Communications Solutions Product of the Year Award for their groundbreaking achievement.
AirMagnet Survey is the industry's most accurate mobile WLAN design and deployment solution for optimal performance, security and compliance. It delivers fast, scientifically accurate site surveys for any 802.11a/b/g/n indoor or outdoor wireless network. Furthermore, it automatically gathers critical Wi-Fi and RF spectrum information from a network, using multiple data collection methods, and generates detailed Wi-Fi performance maps of the results for easy network deployment, capacity planning and optimization. AirMagnet Survey allows customers to optimize voice-over-WLAN (VoWLAN) deployments and identifies problems earlier in the process — the survey phase — thereby minimizing issues that might only be found after the equipment has been rolled out. It is the only survey solution to actively associate to APs and get real world uplink/downlink data rates, retry and packet loss information.
"Site surveys are a mandatory and vital part of the wireless LAN deployment process, especially when related to voice applications," said Chris Roeckl, vice president of marketing at AirMagnet. "AirMagnet Survey has been designed to stand apart from other products by enabling organizations to collect live signal, packet and spectrum data during site surveys. This ensures a scientific approach to measurement and simulation. Winning this award is further validation that our approach resonates in the market."
