Cisco Wireless Network

The New Business Imperative: Wireless Networks Connecting Anytime, Anywhere

As a Cisco Premier Partner, JDL Technologies has installed thousands of Cisco devices in large enterprise networks. Why? Because Cisco has engineered or acquired the best-in-class products for enabling secure, managed wireless solutions. Wireless networking – fast and secure wireless networking – is strategic to business and public enterprises.

Cisco’s secure, scalable, cost-effective wireless network solutions offer:

• Mobility services, such as voice, guest access, advanced security and location

• Modular architecture that supports 802.11n, 802.11a/b/g and enterprise wireless mesh for indoor and outdoor locations

• Security from end to end

Cisco unifies the wired and wireless networks to provide a secure, scalable and manageable platform for delivering mobility services. Integration of the wired and wireless networks enables unified security policies, intrusion prevention, quality of service (QoS) and location services, thereby making it possible to take advantage of business-critical wireless applications. With this innovative solution, unification occurs at all levels, including hardware, software and services. Cisco is the only vendor that provides a solid migration path into all major Cisco switching and routing platforms through Cisco wireless LAN controllers.

Cisco mobile solutions include smartphones or wireless IP phones in addition to desktop-based IP phones and single business-number-reach services. The combination of unified communications and mobility greatly enhances employee effectiveness by: 1) reducing complexity; 2) supporting the use of a single business number and voice mailbox; 3) allowing employees to move communications more easily between voice calls, voicemail, e-mail and instant messaging; and, 4) improving an employee’s ability to find the desired person or information the first time.

Through mobility solutions, companies can deliver insight into the business, collaboration with colleagues, and awareness of critical assets:

• Insight improves productivity and efficiency through access to important applications and resources; maximizes direct customer interaction and remove proxies; and allows users to accurately enter information at the point of service.

• Collaboration improves efficiency by reaching the right resource the first time; increasing the speed of response to unplanned schedule changes; and maximizes direct customer interaction.

• Awareness provides visibility into the location of valuable assets; reduces costs of leasing and equipment purchases to offset losses and theft; improves customer service; and increases security through understanding of the location and movement of goods and people.
