Activo recently partnered up with Meru Networks on a large project for Columbia College\u00a0to install a comprehensive wireless network with approx 150 access points. We have completed installation on both teaching campuses Ainsliewood and Maple Hall and are in the process of installing wireless infrastructure systems on three more locations.<\/p>\n

1.9 billion<\/strong> Wi-Fi devices are expected to hit wireless networks by 2014 (based on a forecast Meru conducted recently). That is an enormous number, but not surprising to us here at Activo. We continue to hear from CIOs and IT Directors across industries that the number of mobile devices they\u2019re running on their networks is simply exploding.<\/p>\n

Our partners Meru, invites you to attend a free webinar to learn how Meru Networks\u2019 Identity Manager suite greatly simplifies secure guest access and automates device provisioning in Bring-Your-Own Device (BYOD) environments.<\/p>\n

Join Niall El-Assaad, Director of Product Management, and Anita Pandey, VP of Product and Vertical Marketing to learn how you can be prepared for the wave of mobile devices coming onto your network.<\/p>\n

In this webinar, you will learn how to:
\n<\/strong>
\n\u2022 Detect and authenticate users and devices as they connect to your wireless LAN
\n\u2022 Provide self service guest management so easy the lobby admin can do it without IT help
\n\u2022 Automatically provision devices for secure 802.1x network connectivity, and consistent with your security policies
\n\u2022 Drastically reduce the IT burden associated with connecting user devices<\/p>\n

We look forward to your participation, so bring your toughest questions!<\/p>\n
