"3Com is delivering the industry’s broadest portfolio of business-class wireless solutions that meet the secure mobility needs of SMBs and larger enterprises," said Matthew Walmsley, EMEA Product Marketing. "Business people need to communicate and collaborate from anywhere in the workplace, as well as from remote locations, such as hot spots. Our new products make this easier than ever by providing users with wireless access that delivers the high performance and security that used to be possible only on a wired network. These new products are Wi-Fi certified to interoperate with all existing Wi-Fi-certified products, which protects customers’ capital investments."
3Com's new products also deliver the high level of security that is a hallmark of 3Com's wireless portfolio. They use the latest encryption techniques and support multiple service set identifiers (SSID) and virtual wireless local area networks, which enable the secure separation of different groups of wireless users, such as teachers from students and employees from guests to protect an organisation’s private data.
