Wireless Quality Assurance (WQA): a new term starting to appear in conjunction with wireless networks
The popularity of wireless broadband networks as a part of corporate IT-infrastructure has grown rapidly, and this has brought many new
types of services and applications to the wireless domain. Corporate customers demand to exploit the competitive edge of mobility that
wireless broadband offers to their business operations.
With 7signal solutions, customers are able to deploy Wireless Quality Assurance in their IT-infrastructure, enabling network administrators
to receive detailed information about the wireless service quality which their users depend on in business critical operations. Maintaining the
system is simple and reporting is automatic: once set up with Key Performance Indicators (KPI) which monitor your wireless applications
continuously and in real-time, the system continually scans and alerts on the first sight of trouble. This way any errors are detected even
before becoming an issue for your end-users, thus eliminating downtimes in wireless operations that consequently would increase operational costs!
Once Wireless Quality Assurance is implemented, Service Level Agreements (SLA’s) can be monitored even in the wireless domain, enabling a true
application end-to-end quality. No more guessing if problems are really in the wireless, wired LAN or Internet!
This solution has practical use in various vertical markets, wherever a WLAN is used for business critical applications, such as logistics,
retail, manufacturing, airports and streaming voice/video. The whole solution is a separate entity in the environment, measuring, testing, and
reporting on the wireless service level in a neutral manner, agnostic to the actual brand or WLAN system used.
