... CleanAir - a great idea in its time - is essentially a technology designed to solve legacy problems in the 2.4GHz band. Today, in 2013, the Wi-Fi world is moving to 5GHz. And the next Wi-Fi technology, 802.11ac, accelerates that shift given it operates ONLY in 5GHz. Getting one's devices to run on the 5GHz spectrum is the best way to get “clean air." Using and maneuvering within the extremely limited 2.4GHz spectrum, where there are only 3 non–overlapping channels from which to choose is a bit of an outdated approach.
The optimal way to address spectrum congestion is by using spectrum analysis that measures both Wi-Fi and non-Wi-Fi energy and interference, and factors those measurements into automatic RF design and configuration.
With the move to 802.11ac and the 5GHz spectrum, the issues that organizations are now facing are how to best use all of the available 5GHz spectrum and how to best manage the performance of 5GHz devices. This is where Xirrus' programmable radios come in. Xirrus is the only vendor that enables a customer to deploy 5GHz radios and 2.4GHz radios in a ratio that reflects the spectrum availability and actual device mix – every radio can be programmed to either band. This also makes Xirrus the only vendor that will allow customers, via software, to tune all their radios to 5GHz for the best performance. And on top of that, multi-radio Arrays help segregate and group like devices (e.g. all 802.11g or 802.11a clients) together on radios to keep other sections of the spectrum clean for newer devices, ultimately providing the best performance for everyone...
