Ruckus Wireless today announced an enterprise-focused mesh wireless system based on draft 802.11n technology. The SmartMesh system is said to "self-organize, self-optimize, and self-heal" and is aimed at enterprises, hotels, schools, hospitals, warehouses, multi-dwelling units, and other environments where Ethernet cabling may not be widely deployed.
Last month, we reported that D-Link's troubled DIR-855 dual-band draft 802.11n router was once again delayed from reappearing on store shelves, this time due to component (un)availability. We just received an update from D-Link on the situation.
The Trendnet TEW-632BRP 300Mbps Wireless N Home Router has been added to the Wireless and Router Charts. The TEW-632BRP is Trendnet's entry-level draft 802.11n router.
The Wi-Fi Alliance (WFA) today announced that it is granting automatic Draft 2.0 802.11n Certification to all products currently undergoing or awaiting Certification testing.
The Belkin N Wireless Router (F5D8223-4) has been added to the Router Charts. The N Wireless is Belkin's entry-level draft 802.11n router.
Hawking Technologies announced today that it has begun shipping a draft 802.11n USB networking adapter with upgradeable antennas and a USB print server designed for use with multifunction printers.
The D-Link DIR-625 has been added to the Router and Wireless Charts. The DIR-625 is one step up from D-Link's entry-level draft 802.11n DIR-615.
The 625 is also a two-antenna design (2T2R) with a four port 10/100 switch. But it has a different Ubicom processor that yields 100 Mbps wire-speed unidirectional routing throughput and 144 Mbps of total simultaneous up/downlink throughput. It also maxed out our Maximum Simultaneous Connections test at 200 connections.
