The true throughput performance of 802.11n implementations is difficult to assess without thorough testing. Cisco recently announced an Internet TV broadcast that will have representatives from Cisco, Intel, and key customers in healthcare and education who will discuss their approach and best practices for delivering high performance mobile computing with 802.11n Draft 2.0 wireless networking and mobility technologies. The discussion will highlight (1) Cisco and Intel sharing performance results from extensive testing of 802.11n technologies and (2) IT professionals from Southeast Alabama Medical Center and a university describing their business needs and technical considerations for deploying 802.11n, as well as their performance testing results. An interactive Q&A will follow.
This event is scheduled for Tuesday, July 29, 2007, 11:00 a.m. – Noon Pacific Time

Cisco is running a cover up. They are very scared of the upcoming Network World AP performance test results. The Cisco APs don’t even come close to the rest of the enterprise AP clan when it comes to performance. Companies like Moto, Aerohive and Siemens (just to name a few) make the Cisco 802.11n APs look like Fry’s returned shelf stock. Even non enterprise based APs like that from Apple out perform Cisco 802.11n APs. It is very disappointing that a company like Cisco continues to put out such low end wireless network devices.
However, I should note that not everything from Cisco wireless is all that bad. I salute the Cisco marketing folks. They continue to persuade the IT managers of the world that they must buy Cisco products. Maybe the Cisco marketing crew can convince their engineering group to put out a quality product.
