24-Port Wireless LAN Switch Enables Large Scale, High-Capacity, Mobile
Enterprise Networks

Extricom, a designer and manufacturer of high-performance, next-generation
wireless LAN infrastructure solutions for the enterprise, today announced the
launch of the Extricom EXSW-2400 Wireless LAN Switch in Japan. The EXSW-2400
networks twenty-four high-bandwidth, Extricom UltraThin(TM) Access Points to
create large wireless service zones that are ideal for covering wide areas such
as multiple hospital floors, warehouses, and entire schools.

"We have been anticipating the arrival of this 24-port switch," commented
Munekazu Inoue, IT manager of Kyorin University. "This switch will be a good
complement to the existing 8-port switches which, for over a year now, we used
to deploy and operate Extricom’s unique WLAN"

Extricom’s award-winning Interference-Free(TM) WLAN system represents the
next generation of enterprise Wi-Fi, with a fundamental shift in architecture
from "cell-planning" to a "channel blanket" topology. The technology
eliminates the co-channel interference that plagues traditional WLAN systems,
to deliver seamless and zero-latency mobility, robust, ‘wire-like’ client
connections, and the ability to design for a guaranteed and predictable level
of service for all users. All this, without the iterative and costly RF cell-
planning of traditional solutions. The result is a high-performance yet simple
solution for powering the enterprise triple play of data, voice (VoWLAN), and
video.

"Initial Japanese deployments have been well-served by our existing line-
up of wireless LAN switches," said Dan Kirtchuk, executive vice president of
sales and marketing for Extricom. "But WLAN projects are getting larger and
more demanding in terms of coverage and mobility. Consequently, we are seeing
accelerating demand, from both customers and partners, for the 24-port version
of our WLAN switch."

The EXSW-2400 WLAN Switch supports all of Extricom’s market-first
capabilities, including guaranteed voice and data grade of service from
separate and overlapping channel blankets operating in the same band, and
TrueReuse, the patented technology that enables dynamic frequency re-use
within the channel blanket, for an effective tripling of the aggregate
bandwidth of each standard Wi-Fi channel.

About Extricom:
Extricom designs and manufactures enterprise Wireless LAN infrastructure
solutions for converged data, voice (VoWLAN), and video. The Extricom
Interference-Free(TM) architecture enables dramatically easier WLAN deployment
and lower total cost of ownership, while achieving a generational leap in
capacity, coverage, seamless mobility and security performance. The result is
a large-scale WLAN infrastructure delivering enterprise-wide triple play
services, with the dependability of a wired network. Extricom is privately
held, with strategic investors that include Motorola.
