Blake/NANOGL I just completed the Technical Training with Xirrus at a session in Dallas. The arrays are designed to go way beyond just worrying about signal strength ("coverage") throughout a building or venue. They tackle the problem of how much bandwidth each connected client has available, which is something I have not had the tools to worry about with other WiFi manufacturers. They seem robust and full featured. They have been around for a while too, so going with Xirrus Arrays is not a beta test of their product. They are at least in their third generation of the product now. Cool stuff!

I have a customer looking at a fair number of Xirrus Wireless Arrays for 802.11a/b/g/n implementations and am looking for some real world insight into them. On the cover they look cool, the white papers look cool, but I am yet to find technical commentary from a real person on these devices. Looking at the XN line, and just curious if anyone has deployed these, supports these or knows anything about them. Thanks! Blake
