The AirMagnet Express line includes streamlined versions of the company’s award-winning WiFi Analyzer and Survey applications. Both "Express" versions include “How To” guides to walk IT administrators step-by-step through the identification and solution of wireless LAN problems.

WiFi Analyzer Express supports Wi-Fi device inventory, problem identification and resolution, rougue device detection and performance analysis. Real-time traffic analysis is also provided to help troubleshoot problem devices.

Survey Express can be used to conduct basic indoor site surveys that include visual mapping and association with APs for more accurate performance analysis.

The second product line is AirMagnet’s AirMedic, which has been in public beta test. It is aimed at bringing dual-band spectrum analysis into the reach of small business and support personnel with an aggressive price and ability to run on any Intel Centrino 2 (WiFi Link 5100/5300 AGN) based laptop.

AirMagnet WiFi Analyzer Express and AirMagnet Survey Express cost $1,995 each or can be purchased together as a bundle for $3,495. AirMedic costs $995. All products are available starting February 24.
