PLEASANTON, Calif., April 28, 2008 – Trapeze Networks® today announced it is publishing two white papers to better meet the demand it’s receiving for more information about its
NonStop Wireless announcement. Trapeze is also publishing a white paper by two industry luminaries and members of the Trapeze team on WLAN management issues related to 802.11n.
“Our Nonstop Wireless announcement is generating widespread interest,” said
Ahmet Tuncay, Trapeze Networks’ senior vice president of product management and marketing. “At Interop, we will be meeting delegations from around the world who are interested in Trapeze Nonstop Wireless and want to see our demonstration. Since not everyone can attend Interop, Trapeze is publishing two white papers to help us manage inquiries and satisfy the demand for more information.”

The NonStop Wireless Whitepaper reviews wireless networking’s growth, analyzes the business and technology hurdles that separate wireless networking from replacing wired networking at the edge of an enterprise network, and shows how the Trapeze approach to reliability is critical for the success of mobile data and voice applications.
