AirMagnet Provides Wireless Assurance to Tradeshow
Technology Provider
Smart City relies on AirMagnet’s product suite
to manage wireless buildup/teardown at events
SUNNYVALE, Calif., June 12, 2007 – AirMagnet
Inc., the award-winning leader in wireless network
assurance solutions, today announced that Smart City,
the nation’s largest provider of event
technology, uses AirMagnet’s suite of products
for wireless assurance at top tradeshows and
conventions across the nation.
Smart City relies on AirMagnet’s wireless LAN
toolset to plan, manage, troubleshoot and secure the
dynamic wireless environments of more than 5,000
tradeshows per year, including the Consumer
Electronics Show (CES) and venues such as the Orange
County Convention Center in Orlando and the Las Vegas
Convention Center. The solutions used by Smart City
include AirMagnet Enterprise, Laptop Analyzer and
Spectrum Analyzer, as well as the company’s
Survey and Planner tools.
“It’s really amazing when you sit back
and think about the complexity around wireless
networks at these venues,” said Ronald Shaul,
Director of Technology for Smart City.
“We’ve got new walls and structures that
weren’t there yesterday, interference from a
tremendous amount of new exhibitor and attendee
equipment, hundreds of rogue access points,
incredible and constantly fluctuating density with
thousands of people hitting the network at once. And,
with all of this happening in real time, it’s a
potential nightmare to manage. AirMagnet’s
tools are an absolute requirement to ensure optimal
performance and security in such a dynamic and
unpredictable wireless environment.”
AirMagnet offers a holistic product suite designed to
meet every challenge associated with the WLAN design,
deployment, security and management, even in highly
variable environments such as tradeshows and
conventions. AirMagnet enables organizations to
design the WLAN from the ground up, determining the
correct number, placement and configuration of APs
required for optimal coverage, then monitor,
troubleshoot and secure the active network.

largest provider of event technology in the
convention industry. With corporate headquarters in
Lake Buena Vista, Fla., Smart City provides clients
with design, installation and maintenance of data,
