New York, NY, July 3, 2006 - Extricom, a designer and manufacturer of wireless LAN infrastructure solutions for the enterprise, today announced that it has been awarded "Wireless Product of the Year" by Techworld, a business unit of International Data Group (IDG), the world's leading technology media, research and event company. Extricom's patented Interference-Free™ WLAN system was evaluated by an independent panel of judges based on an extensive list of criteria, including: features, functionality, innovation, performance, configuration, resilience, easy of use, fitness for purpose, price and market position.

"We are truly honored to be recognized as the wireless product of the year by Techworld and their panel of esteemed judges," said Gideon Rottem, CEO and co-founder of Extricom. "Techworld's evaluation criteria was as demanding as it was comprehensive, so winning this accolade against a record-breaking number of nominations is a rewarding validation of our unique enterprise wireless LAN infrastructure offering."

Extricom's patented Interference-Free WLAN system represents the next generation of enterprise Wi-Fi, with a fundamental shift in architecture from "cell-planning" to a "channel blanket" topology. The technology creates extended zones of coverage for evNery available radio channel, by using each channel at every access point that is controlled by the switch, without incurring the co-channel interference that otherwise afflicts traditional WLAN systems. Within each channel blanket there is seamless and zero-latency mobility, robust, wire-like client connections, and the ability to design for a guaranteed and predictable level of service for all users. And all of this is achieved without the iterative and costly RF cell-planning of traditional WLAN. The result is a high-performance yet simple solution for powering the enterprise triple play.
