The Xirrus WiFi Arrays are positioned as wireless replacements for managed Ethernet workgroup switches. Whereas most WiFi arrays use centralized controllers, the Xirrus arrays use mesh networking to place intelligence, processing, and encryption power at the edge of the network, according to the company. Xirrus claims its Arrays offer the industry's highest level of AES/WPA2 encryption processing, on a per radio basis. The Arrays are also touted as the only FIPS-certified, multi-mode mesh WiFi repeaters capable of gigabit Ethernet-like performance.
