Deploying 802.11n: The High-Speed Cruising Experience
An InformationWeek Editorial Perspectives TechWebcast

On February 17, 1907 the New York Times ran an article stating that the horse was losing ground in competition with motor cars.

In this webinar we will discuss different application scenarios for 802.11n networks and will review how an early-adopter, Carnegie Mellon University (CMU), is deploying 802.11n network on its academic campus as part of the Wireless Andrew upgrade. Included will be a review of CMU's connectivity and performance requirements, their decision to move to 802.11n, the technology evaluation criteria and vendor selection process, and deployment plans.
