4ipnet Delivers Wireless Office Solution for Small Offices

Taipei, Taiwan (SANEPR.com) September 10, 2008 -- 4ipnet, Inc., a provider of wireless network security and management products, delivered its Wireless Office Solution for Small Offices, addressing the demand for how to increase workforce productivity in today's competitive business arena. The Solution enables mobility and wireless access across network boundaries - taking the office wirelessly allows employees to work more dynamically. The 4ipnet Solution, comprising MSG100 Secure Wireless Office Controller and EAP100 Enterprise Access Point, not only simplifies the adoption of a WLAN, but provides a total control of both wired and wireless office networks.

"Besides to help small offices easily set up a wireless LAN, our goal is to provide a secure and manageable network," said Lillian Lu, managing director of 4ipnet. "The solution is exclusively designed for small businesses, those who are budget-conscious and technology-shy. But these companies also want employees to work where they are needed, not just at their desks. We have an all-in-one solution for them. The point is ease of use and ease of management."

The 4ipnet Solution targets the SMB sector by designing a prescription for how to turn the daunting task of rolling out an office-wide wireless network into a turnkey setup - with advanced network management features and enterprise-class wireless security. While a small office network doesn't match the scale of an enterprise one, many of the same issues apply to both, such as the concern for hideous security issues and the demand for continuous network connection while moving.

For SECURITY, the Solution comes with a suite of security capabilities to protect office network from unauthorized access, and prevent data from interception as it travels over the air. For MANAGEMENT, the Solution simultaneously supports multiple industry-standard authentication methods to seamlessly integrate user authentication with the single sign-on option, which is beneficial to manage WAN, wired LAN, and wireless LAN networks all at one time.

For MOBILITY, MSG100 is capable of managing up to 6 EAP100 APs. The Internet stays connected when users roam between different APs with the same account. For SCALABILITY, with the centralized AP management function, the Solution enables companies to scale wireless coverage as their businesses grow. Moreover, the wireless network deployed can easily integrate into the existing wired infrastructure, which also means the original wired network is being augmented to extend network coverage and increase mobility by adopting wireless networks.
