AP Controller Technology

Benefits

Con l’accelerare della tendenza al BYOD, la connettività WiFi è ormai ampiamente disponibile ovunque in uffici, alberghi e persino scuole. Ciò comporta una rapida e crescente richiesta di access point WiFi, che solleva a sua volta problematiche di gestione e provisioning per gli amministratori di rete. Un controller WLAN ben progettato rappresenta solitamente una soluzione per liberare gli amministratori da tali questioni.

Adesso, Zyxel rende disponibile la sua tecnologia AP Controller (APC) avanzata non solo per i controller WLAN NXC standalone, ma anche per i suoi svariati prodotti Gateway. In questo modo, permette alle aziende di scalare facilmente le proprie reti WiFi, con investimenti e sforzi di gestione ridotti.
