PLEASANTON, Calif., April 28 /PRNewswire/ -- Trapeze Networks, a Belden Brand (NYSE: BDC) and leader in enterprise wireless LAN equipment and management software, today announced its infrastructure solutions have been tested extensively with Apple Computer's iPads and many other tablets.  Trapeze's wireless system software, access points, controllers and management software provide reliable and scaleable wireless networking so all users can be mobile and connected -- 24x7.

This massive device growth has real impact on wireless network design and deployment. To that end, Trapeze shares its experience and illustrates how network managers can prepare for the proliferation of new Wi-Fi devices such as tablets in its new white paper, 'How Will the Tablet Generation Affect Wireless LANs?'

More Users, Applications and Devices

Apple's iPad and iPod, Amazon's Kindle and Google's Android are all soaring in popularity in many industries including healthcare, education and hospitality.  So, too, is the enthusiasm for all the many other tablets, eBook readers, netbooks and notebooks, smartphones and plethora of similar portable platforms now on the market -- all with wireless networking interfaces built-in.  More users with more devices running more applications, often concurrently (such as using VoWLAN phone for voice and a laptop for data applications), is becoming the new norm.
