Xirrus Partner SETS S.R.L. Deploys Unmatched Wi-Fi Point-to-Point Solution for TATA S.P.A.

The Xirrus Wi-Fi Array is the only Wi-Fi Platform Capable of Simultaneously Servicing Hundreds of Clients and Providing Robust Wireless Bridging Between Buildings

Xirrus, Inc., the only Wi-Fi “Power-Play” that can replace Ethernet workgroup switches with Wi-Fi as the primary network connection, announced today that its partner SETS S.R.L. in Milan, Italy has once again innovated on behalf of their customers through the deployment of a multi-purpose Wi-Fi network at TATA S.P.A. in Treviso, Italy. SETS S.R.L. deployed Xirrus Wi-Fi Arrays to not only service traditional data and voice clients at TATA’s corporate offices and warehouse locations but also wirelessly link those facilities together utilizing the Wi-Fi Arrays integrated and dedicated wireless bridging capabilities.

TATA S.P.A. in Treviso is an industrial air conditioning and heating manufacturer located in an industrial campus outside of Milan, Italy. They asked SETS S.R.L. to provide Wi-Fi both inside and between their buildings to avoid the significant cost of installing and maintaining a buried inter-building fiber plant.

“We deployed Xirrus Wi-Fi Arrays at TATA S.P.A. to deliver local client connectivity as well as voice roaming services,” said Giacomo Broggi, Director at SETS S.R.L. “We linked buildings over 600 meters apart wirelessly without using special equipment, external antennas, or having to do time consuming antenna alignments. This was easily accomplished by using the integrated and automatic Point-to-Point capability of the Wi-Fi Array—we created a switchless enterprise, saving my customer considerable monthly telecommunications expense by allowing them to wirelessly redistribute their wired uplink connection across two facilities.”

Unlike traditional omni-directional access points with one or two radios, the Xirrus Wi-Fi Array integrates a high-gain directional antenna system along with four, eight, or 16 radios, each capable of a per-radio TCP throughput link of 18Mbps at distances greater than 800 meters between Wi-Fi Arrays. By bonding up to three dedicated radios per link, organizations can create robust wireless bridges with speeds equivalent to wired 100Mbps Ethernet, while at the same time servicing wireless users with the additional radios in the same devices. The ultimate result is reduction in equipment investment and making applications available in mobile environments.
