(Airwave Real-Time Monitoring - Continued) Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center's (WFUBMC) IT staff knew that the wireless network would quickly become mission-critical as users started to rely on WiFi access for patient-related tasks. However, as IT staff developed their wireless LAN deployment plan, they knew they would need a WiFi network management solution that would automatically configure their wireless access points, manage the firmware distribution process and provide accurate utilization statistics for network planning, all in a secure environment. AirWave Wireless has developed the AirWave Management Platform (AMP), a web-based software solution that manages wireless networks in real-time. AMP reduces WLAN management costs and optimizes network performance, while improving the security of wireless networks through continual monitoring of security configurations. AMP is already making its mark on various sectors, but none more so
than the healthcare industry. For example, the Wake Forest University
Baptist Medical Center (WFUBMC) evaluated several solutions and decided
to utilize AMP for their WiFi network. Ask your sales representitive for a demo today. (Our Competitor's Latest Promise - Continued) "It's tough to get positive human contact in this business.
