Wireless Lan Technology
HiPath Wireless
Siemens leverages third party technologies and products to provide the widest possible range of certified mobile healthcare solutions, using the globally-recognised HiPath Ready designation. To make solution integration even easier, HiPath Wireless Manager provides a suite of open APIs for partners and customers
Siemens' voice leadership ensures that mobility solutions can be easily deployed with rich multimedia capabilities. Siemens has also integrated 'best-in-class' wireless security and compliance reporting with its HiGuard security module, giving users the confidence to deploy mobility solutions.
HiPath Wireless Controller and Convergence Software
The HiPath Wireless Controller is the platform that provides centralised intelligence for the HiPath Wireless enterprise wireless LAN (WLAN) solution. The Controller aggregates and coordinates all access points and manages clients so the wireless LAN appears as individual, centrally managed IP subnets. As a result, the need for on-site installation and maintenance of remote access points is greatly reduced, and hospital network managers benefit from enhanced centralised control.
The HiPath Wireless Convergence Software resides on the Controller, and provides an intuitive web-based interface that makes it easy to manage the entire wireless network. Virtualized user segmentation allows unique quality of service, security, and application permissions to be centrally defined and pushed throughout the hospital network. This not only simplifies network management, but also makes it easy to implement sophisticatedHospital Mobility Solutions across the wireless LAN.
HiPath Wireless Access Points
The HiPath Wireless family of Access Points is enterprise-class 802.11a/b/g capable, providing coverage anywhere that wireless LAN (WLAN) service is required. Unique Plug-and-Play technology dramatically simplifies deployment of the WLAN solution. All Access Points and Controllers in the WLAN are virtually interconnected, enabling centralised management and seamless overlay into any existing IP-based network infrastructure. All of this leads to greater management control and operational efficiency.
The division of labour between the Access Point and Controller is optimized by using a "Fit AP" model that balances high performance, security, and manageability. The result is a WLAN infrastructure that can easily be expanded to support advanced Hospital Mobility Solutions.
HiPath Wireless Manager
As hospital wireless LAN (WLAN) installations continue to grow in both size and complexity, it becomes increasingly difficult to keep them manageable and secure using traditional tools. HiPath Wireless Manager provides a full range of powerful-yet-intuitive management capabilities that make it easy to reduce the complexity and ongoing costs of managing the WLAN.
HiPath Wireless Manager provides comprehensive multi-Controller management that allows administrators to maintain centralized control of large wireless networks. A comprehensive suite of tools are available to give a global view of the entire wireless network for trend analysis.
HiPath Wireless Manager's capabilities can be greatly extended through optional Advanced Services modules and partner solutions that integrate sophisticated mobile healthcare processes and applications. The HiGuard module adds state-of-the-art wireless intrusion prevention, location and visualised performance optimisation, while HiGuard Reporting provides an automated tool for testing the network's compliance with healthcare regulations.
