Xirrus Signs Another Australian College

According to Xirrus, it has deployed its 802.11n Wi-Fi arrays at Emmanuel College, in Carrara, Gold Coast, Australia. Financial details of the win were not disclosed.

The move requires a high density, Wi-Fi product. Xirrus develops arrays which support a large number of users and high bandwidth in a high density, combining multiple access points and switching hardware in a single unit.
