by Chris Silva

with Ellen Daley, Simon Yates, Christine E. Atwood


Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

Cisco Systems emerges as the Leader in the wireless local area network (WLAN) space this year. The vendor, offering a comprehensive solution of standalone, centrally managed, and hybrid access points complements its strategy with offerings scaling from small and medium-size business (SMB) to data-center-class. In addition, offering a full suite of voice hardware and software and having developed the only location appliance of vendors considered, Cisco spans the full spectrum of WLAN components. The vendor's monolithic size and premium-priced offerings are ideal for large enterprises looking for a one-vendor solution and organizations with a considerable, existing Cisco investment looking for the opportunity to standardize and centrally manage all network elements both wired and wireless.
