Xirrus Wi-Fi Array

What is it Xirrus Wi-Fi Array?

Xirrus Wi-Fi Array is the only fully distributed dense radio Wi-Fi architecture available in the industry today.

It delivers unmatched RF innovation and wireless performance on a per access point and system-wide basis, yet requires fewer devices, switch ports, cabling, time, and effort to implement and maintain than traditional offerings - accelerating the Time-to-Value by 3X.

Xirrus Array Vs other Wi-Fi network solutions

To see how Xirrus Array performs against other Wi-Fi network solutions available, check out the independent reviews produced by Tolly Enterprises.

1. In comparison to the Cisco Aironet Wi-Fi solution, a single Xirrus XN4 Wi-Fi Array:

  • Delivered significantly higher user density and performance per device and per radio, resulting in significantly fewer devices required per deployment
  • Provided greater coverage area per device in both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz modes of operation
  • Completed Microsoft domain logon with 50 concurrent users 66% faster than Cisco
  • Completed file download of 100MB files for 50 concurrent users 65% faster than Cisco
  • Implemented a distributed architecture that obviated the need for AP-controller traffic to transit the backbone

2. In comparison to a 4-AP Cisco Aironet Wi-Fi solution, a single Xirrus XN8 Wi-Fi Array:

  • Delivered significantly higher user density and performance, while requiring significantly fewer devices per deployment
  • Provided greater coverage area per device in both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz modes of operation
  • Completed Microsoft domain logon with 100 concurrent users 30% faster than Cisco
  • Completed file download of 100MB files for 100 concurrent users 15% faster than Cisco
  • Implemented a distributed architecture that obviated the need for AP-controller traffic to transit the backbone

Case studies

1. Bristol Brunel Academy Boosts Wi-Fi Performance for Students by Replacing Their Existing Wi-Fi Network with Xirrus 802.11n Wi-Fi Arrays
"When Xirrus told me they could provide more capacity, bandwidth, and coverage than anyone else with fewer devices, I was sceptical and was advised that it just wasn't true," said Chris Mackintosh, Head of eLearning at BBA. "When I saw the real-life site survey in progress and how well they understood the physics behind a user dense environment, I was confident they could deliver. Then, when they mentioned their 100% implementation guarantee to us, there was no risk."

2. Liverpool Women's NHS Foundation Trust Hospital Selects Xirrus to Provide High Performance Wi-Fi Network
"Liverpool found that Xirrus is the only wireless solution that provided the needed coverage and bandwidth to support the hospital's requirements for a high performing, reliable network. Round the clock monitoring of the Wi-Fi network for rogue access points and other security threats was a key requirement in protecting patient information."

3. Prestigious Edgbaston Cricket Ground Replaces Wired Switches with Wi-Fi
"Thanks to the Xirrus solution, we had the coverage, user density, and bandwidth needed to permanently replace our temporary APs and the wired workgroup switches. Anyone looking for a simple, cost effective, and powerful solution must give Xirrus a call-there is nothing else like it on the market today." - James McLaughlin, Commercial Director at Edgbaston
