I recently published a blog describing how Dell offers an open path to modernize your network from the data center to the campus environment, while leveraging the investments you’ve already made. Today I am excited to announce new advances in our comprehensive campus portfolio that further extend networking savings, efficiencies, and performance.
Modernize the wireless edge with wired-like speeds. To provide the performance today’s networks need to meet the demands of the connected, modern workforce, Dell is introducing Dell Networking W-Series Gigabit Wireless Access Points that deliver unprecedented data rates up to 1.3 Gbps for end-to-end wireless solutions that use the 802.11ac standard. Unlike competitive solutions that require an add-on module, these new access points were purpose-built with you in mind to simplify .ac wireless implementation, so you can enable thousands of users to enjoy desktop-like speeds wirelessly, at just $2/Mb.
Upgrade the wiring closet with enterprise-class access solutions that grow as your needs change. I’m also pleased to announce the Dell Networking N-Series family of energy-efficient, cost-effective 1GbE and 10GbE switches that enable you to scale your campus network infrastructure as your requirements change. The N-Series delivers 50% more unit stacking capacity and 44% more 1GbE stacked ports than the competition. And with embedded common tools and practices, you’ll be up and running quickly with 75% faster deployment times and 50% fewer people required.1
Manage expansion with confidence and optimum uptime. The Dell Networking C-Series are modular, fully redundant 1/10/40 GbE switches that deliver high-performance aggregation and back-end infrastructure to reduce bottlenecks and congestion for dependable operation. With up to 1.6 times the throughput and density and up to 4 times the performance scalability, you can quickly extend mobile infrastructure operation and readily support modern workloads.2
Learn more about how Dell Networking campus solutions can help you modernize on your terms. Join us at Dell World for one of three main track sessions on Dell campus networking solutions on December 12 and 13. I hope to see you there!
