Sharing Space

In another RF management application, ProSafe Wireless Access Points with IntelliFi minimize problems when different wireless networks are located close together. Conventional wireless devices will suffer from poor performance due to interference. NETGEAR ProSafe Wireless Access Points with IntelliFi improve performance and security in crowded environments.

Opportunity: A 20-person company moves into a new 3,750 square-foot office space, in a building with two other companies in the same floor. The office manager wants to use wireless networking to reduce installation costs and increase workspace flexibility. Because of the close proximity to other access points, there are overlapping signals, resulting in interference and dead zones.

Solution: After their installation, NETGEAR ProSafe 802.11 Wireless Access Points and ProSafe Dual Band Wireless PC Cards with IntelliFi technology monitor and tune the wireless signal to avoid interference. Because IntelliFi connects users with the strongest, least-loaded access point, it leads to fewer dead zones and connection drops, while strengthening security.
