World's Largest Technology Distributor to Offer Next Generation
Wireless LAN Across All North American Channel Segments NEW YORK,
October 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Extricom, a designer and
manufacturer of high-performance, next generation wireless LAN
(WLAN) infrastructure solutions, today announced that its
award-winning Interference-Free(TM) WLAN System is available from
Ingram Micro Inc. (NYSE: IM), the world's largest technology
distributor. Since mid-summer, Ingram Micro has been offering its
reseller customers the complete family of Extricom WLAN switches,
access points and accessories. "Ingram Micro is strongly committed
to providing innovative Wi-Fi products for our solution provider
and system integrator customers," stated Ken Bast, vice president,
vendor management, Ingram Micro. "The Extricom WLAN adds a
significantly differentiated, high-value solution to our wireless
portfolio. The technology's combination of simplicity and higher
performance offers an unmatched 'one-two punch' that enables the
solution provider to pursue wireless projects of all sizes without
incurring the deployment challenges traditionally seen in this
space." Extricom's patented WLAN System represents the next
generation of enterprise Wi-Fi, with a fundamental shift in
architecture from "cell-planning" to a "channel blanket" topology.
This unique approach eliminates the co-channel interference that
plagues traditional WLAN systems, to deliver seamless and
zero-latency mobility, robust, "wire-like" client connections,
greatly increased capacity, and the ability to design for a
guaranteed and predictable level of service for all users. All this
is achieved without the iterative and costly RF cell-planning
required in traditional solutions. The result is a high-performance
yet simple WLAN for the enterprise triple play of data, voice
(VoWLAN), and video. "Ingram Micro has an exceptional reputation
with the value added reseller and system integrator community,
built on the very best and most innovative products, as well as
superb supply execution," commented Alan Casas, Extricom's VP Sales
North America. "Their vendor selection criteria are tremendously
stringent, so Ingram Micro's decision to include Extricom in its
portfolio speaks volumes for the caliber and business value that
our technology represents. This has certainly been evident by the
interest and adoption we have seen from Ingram's partners." About
