by adding SW licenses.
Allows for overlay deployments
without disruption to the existing
wireline infrastructure. Simplifies
management task by minimizing the
number of network elements.
Provides analysis of the RF environment
to facilitate deployment with self
tuning access points and facilitates
operation of the network with virtual
real time site survey.
