Nortel Unveils 'Unwired Enterprise' Vision for the All-Wireless Office

Nortel unveiled its vision for the ‘Unwired Enterprise’ designed to enable businesses to create all-wireless office environments that are freed from the costs and physical constraints of traditional office cabling. The Unwired Enterprise is also intended to benefit from seamless universal mobility in and out of the office, enabled by true wireless broadband capable of supporting all communications needs, including voice, video, unified communications and other real-time applications.

 

As part of this Unwired Enterprise vision, Nortel also announced an increase in its R&D investment in the development of a complete next-generation enterprise wireless and mobility solution. This solution plans to include next-generation wireless LAN and Mesh products supporting access at speeds three to six times faster than today’s rates, a portfolio of enterprise switches and routers with embedded wireless functionality to improve the performance of real-time applications like Wi-Fi voice, and unified network management that provides end-to-end support across an enterprise data network from a single management platform.
