Huawei Agile Distributed Wi-Fi Solution Selected as Finalist for 2016 Best of Interop Award

SHENZHEN, China, April 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Huawei today announced its selection as a finalist for Interop Las Vegas' 2016 Best of Interop Awards. The Best of Interop Awards recognize exhibitors for innovation and technological advancements within 10 core areas of IT. Huawei Agile Distributed Wi-Fi Solution is recognized in the Mobility/Wireless category as one of the three finalists, which acknowledges innovative WLAN hardware, software, and applications that advance mobility in the workplace. Award winners will be announced from Interop Las Vegas 2016, which takes place May 2- May 6 at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center.

"We are honored to be selected as a finalist," said Jane Fu, Director of WLAN Product, Switch & Enterprise Communications Product Line, Huawei. "This proves that Huawei's Agile Distributed Wi-Fi Solution is highly competitive in the industry. Being recognized from among the ranks of Interop exhibitors is the affirmation of Huawei's groundbreaking innovations in the WLAN field. We will continue to innovate and bring better products and solutions for our customers."

Huawei will showcase the solution at Interop Las Vegas, the industry's most respected independent technology event for modern IT and networking professionals. Huawei Agile Distributed Wi-Fi Solution has transformed the traditional "AC (access controller) + Fit AP (access point)" architecture into a three-layer distributed architecture — "AC + Central AP + Remote Radio Units (RRUs)", with the "Fit AP" layer divided into two parts (Central AP + RRU). This innovation brings a great increase in wireless performance and addresses signal coverage problems in environments with a high density of rooms, especially hotels, dormitories, and hospitals without increasing customer investments. Particularly, the solution greatly reduces the network configuration and maintenance workload, making the network easy to maintain. Currently, Huawei Agile Distributed Wi-Fi Solution has been widely used in education, hospitality, and healthcare industries.

"Congratulations to Huawei and all Best of Interop finalists on the success of their new products and positive impact on the IT community," said Interop General Manager Jennifer Jessup. "These are the types of visionary solutions that define the future of networking. We're excited for Interop attendees to be able to interact with these products first-hand in the Expo."
