Case Study: Tire Rack accelerates collaboration with Xirrus Wireless Arrays

Tire Rack Accelerates Operations with Xirrus Wireless Arrays

Tire Rack, America's largest independent tire tester, faced a challenge providing reliable, high-bandwidth Wi-Fi to support its marketing department's collaboration with large media files across its sizable headquarters. They needed a wireless solution from a vendor that could cover several hundred thousand square feet, support over 150 concurrent users, and enable seamless roaming without technical interruptions.

Riverbed, through its Xirrus Wireless Arrays, provided the solution by deploying high-density access points that delivered the necessary performance and coverage. The implementation resulted in fast and easy collaboration for employees, with the CIO noting the "astounding" speed and performance. The solution also provided Tire Rack with complete network control and management and opened possibilities for future expansion to their test track facilities.
