Tue, September 1, 2009 Aruba Networks, Inc.: Aruba's Enterprise Wireless LAN Market Share Soars in New Dell'Oro Report
SUNNYVALE, CA--(Marketwire - September 2, 2009) - Aruba Networks, Inc. (
"Customers focus on value in a down economy, and Aruba is the value leader in this market," said Keerti Melkote, Aruba's co-founder and CTO. "Our growth comes in part from customers who are tired of overpaying for needless wired infrastructure and are drawn to Aruba's network rightsizing message. Our financial strength and focus on standards and interoperability is also helping us take share from struggling niche players. The net result is that our market share is rising, and we're adding new customers at a record rate -- over 600 for Aruba's last fiscal quarter alone."
The Dell'Oro report notes that the 802.11n enterprise dependent access point market grew roughly 53% from 1 Q 2009 to 2 Q 2009. "The transition from 802.11abg to 802.11n is clearly gaining speed, driven by customers' desire to use wireless wherever possible, Ethernet only where necessary," continued Melkote. "That migration plays to our technical strengths because Aruba's 802.11n solutions deliver wire-like performance and lower life-cycle costs."
Aruba's standards-based, adaptive 802.11n wireless LANs optimize Wi-Fi performance in real-time by virtue of its centralized architecture and Adaptive Radio Management (ARM) technology. ARM uses infrastructure-based controls to manage how Wi-Fi clients interact, ensuring that data, voice, and video applications have sufficient network resources to operate properly. An Aruba technical brief, "[ 802.11n Client Throughput Performance ]," describing client field test results can be downloaded from Aruba's Web site. A white paper, titled "[ ARM Yourself to Increase Enterprise WLAN Data Capacity ]," is available outlining the technical features of ARM.
