I put this together some time ago, but here's what I have on file:
Hitatchi IP5000AE
$320
Pros: light handset; highly configurable; MWI light; vendor is very
standards-focused; 802.11b/g
Cons: might be too small for plant use; not very rugged.

Linksys and ruggedized don't go in the same sentence. ;)
I would recommend at looking at Spectralink (now Avaya) and ASCOM. Those
are the only two that are anywhere near ruggedized.

AirMagnet's Enterprise Analyzer can in fact disable switch ports

. I'm not sure how significantly the Aruba version changes things, but you
should be able to ask your AirMagnet sales person.

I believe what's your doing is called mixed-mode encryption, and you're

Can anyone on this list comment on their "dense" experiences with vendors
other than Meru (and Xirrus)?
I know I may appear to be buoying Meru in this thread, but it's only because

Thanks for responding. Two points:

To answer my own question, it appears that it's Trapeze's AP that can draw
power from both Ethernet ports. AFAIK, that AP is not G.A. yet.

I was asking about a single radio AP (could be dual-band, operating at 2.4
or 5 GHz), not a dual-radio AP.
I think your approach extracts the best performance, but perhaps there are
many more who want a separate overlay operating at 5 GHz, eventually
migrating away and turning down the 2.4 GHz gea

Can I ask why you've decided to skip 802.11n at this time? Do you have
plans to do a round of hardware replacements in 3 years, and take advantage
of lower 802.11b/g AP pricing?

Just to emphasize on what Dave is saying here - we're already seeing a
feature gap between generation 1 and generation 2 802.11n chipsets/APs in
regards to power consumption. We know that they'll continue to improve

If your APs are not under SMARTNet, doesn't mean you can't upgrade to
whatever new comes out, it just means it's going to cost you money. =) But
perhaps the money saved on SMARTNet will pay down 50% of what it costs to
upgrade those APs in 2 years.

Yes, that seems to be the case (i.e. Marvell). Though those who do only 2

Besides the "being seen by 3 AP" requirement, if your wireless network is
voice-ready it can be a proxy for being location-ready. Ekahau has their
own pre-sales tool to help measure what kind of accuracy can be expected. I
assume that the other vendors have something similar.

Do any of the bands have lesser/no DFS requirements? If so, those are will
be more attractive.

I've heard of this before...my best understanding of the symptom is that the

I'm not exactly sure what you're asking in this first question, but let me

I've heard from at least one vendor that a b/g radio with and 802.11n radio
