RSD #12 selected Aerohive and Digital BackOffice after reviewing leading wireless vendors.  “Aerohive’s controller-less architecture eliminates performance bottlenecks and single points of failure” said Vic Vicenzi, Network Administrator, “and our experience since going live, confirms vendor claims.  Aerohive optimizes airtime utilization when numerous wireless devices access the network from a single room or a common area.”
