Bridging the User Expectation Gap in Enterprise UC

The Rise of BYOD and broadband mobility has driven new expectations, desires, and needs for enterprise campus users... expectations that most organizations are struggling to meet, let alone exceed. This user demand in the workplace combined with ever constrained budgets, and limited IT resources leads to an enormous disconnect between what users expect of their "personal" experience versus what is actually delivered from their typical office environment in terms of QoS, coverage, and network quality.

Industry's Fastest 802.11ac Access Point from Meru

A wireless access point supporting the next-generation 802.11ac (5G) wireless standard, was unveiled by Sunnyvale, California-based Meru Networks last week, and is the company's first access point.

The Meru AP832 access point is the most recent in a series of new wireless equipment brought in this year to support 802.11ac; Aruba Networks, Motorola Solutions and Cisco have also released next-generation access points and routers.
