The only end-to-end, network-independent Wireless Quality Assurance solution

7signal WQA solutions for healthcare and enterprises are based on the Sapphire System: a unique, innovative hardware/software solution that monitors RF traffic on the wireless LAN - rather like air traffic control manages take-offs and landings at a busy airport!

7signal’s Sapphire System is the first solution to allow IT managers to measure real connection quality for all clients on a wireless network, whether using device-specific medical applications, web apps, video or VoIP.

The Sapphire System fundamentally changes the way wireless LANs can be managed. Implementing a Sapphire System delivers comprehensive WLAN quality monitoring, reporting alarms and proactive fault prevention for all wireless networks of any scale. WQA actually encourages rapid adoption of productivity-enhancing mobile applications, while eliminating
costly post-deployment surprises.

7signal WQA solutions are vendor independent and effectively just add a management layer over an existing installation. The Sapphire System is the first product to provide the risk management tools needed to help hospitals meet ISO 80001 standards and the WQA tools for Service Level Agreement (SLA) implementation in WLANs.

The 7signal Sapphire System

7signal’s Sapphire System is a unique hardware/software network overlay using special monitoring stations: “Sapphire Eyes”. Permanently installed, the Sapphire Eyes constantly and automatically monitor any wireless LAN from a true end-to-end perspective.

The Sapphire System monitors the radio environment, provides quality metrics and performs end-to-end application tests 24/7. The Sapphire System allows IT staff to predict problems and failure points for proactive corrective measures before end-users could ever notice a problem. With a Sapphire System installed, you can:

• Meet new ISO 80001 requirements
• Provides the network management tools and documentation required by ISO 80001 in healthcare applications

• Enhance QoS for wireless LANs
• Enables SLAs for hospital and other mission-critical networks

• Achieve a high ROI
• Optimize the WLAN infrastructure
• Transitions WLAN support from time-consuming trouble-shooting to proactive up-time management

• Sapphire Systems are designed to be easy to use and install :
• WLAN-vendor-independent solution
• Centralized and automated 24/7 network monitoring and reporting
• Allows for secure remote monitoring
