The RFS6000 supports an all-wireless enterprise vision, letting businesses build an enterprise WLAN that serves the entire organisation from workers in corporate headquarters to manufacturing and distribution plants to remote branch offices.

The RFS6000 supports up to 48 802.11a/b/g/n access points and is capable of providing Wi-Fi coverage for up to 2,000 users. The RFS6000 also provides significant cost savings compared to wired Ethernet networks by completely eliminating the need to run separate voice and data cables to each user within the enterprise.


Based on the Wireless Next Generation (Wi-NG) architecture this network-in-a-box solution is the industry's first wireless switch to include the combination of eight high-power PoE ports for 802.11n; a PCI express slot for wireless WAN backhaul 3G/4G services such as EVDO, HSDPA and WiMAX; and a PCI expansion slot for services such as IP PBX.


The RFS6000 offers enterprise-class security with integrated 802.1x, WPA/WPA2, stateful inspection firewall, VPN, AAA server and NAC support. The wireless switch is also PCI and HIPAA compliance-capable out-of-the-box.
