Why is Redundancy Important?
Wireless gear is very reliable…. …but it is frequently installed
on light poles which aren’t
10
Not All ‘Wireless Mesh’ Created Equal
11
Imagine a Traditional Wired Switch
(Wired Ethernet infrastructure)
Most efficient mesh utilizes L2 distributed wireless switch architecture
