RESTON, Virginia, May 14 /PRNewswire/ --

- With New Analyzer, Users Can Easily Discover Previously Undetected 
Wi-Fi Interference Issues

Ekahau Inc., a leading provider of Wi-Fi-based Real Time
Location Systems (RTLS), today announced that it will be adding Wi-Fi (802.11
WLAN) spectrum analysis capabilities to the Ekahau Site Survey solution. The
spectrum analyzer allows users to detect and visualize interference issues
that cannot be detected with standard Wi-Fi adapters, such as wireless video
cameras, cordless phones, radar, Bluetooth devices and microwave ovens that
can impact network throughput and performance.

The new spectrum analysis tool is optimized for simultaneous
operation with Ekahau Site Survey. The spectrum analysis functionality can be
initiated from Ekahau Site Survey user interface when using Ekahau Site
Survey version 4.5.9 or later.

The dual-band spectrum analyzer is able to analyze the 2.4 GHz
frequency band, as well as the 5 GHz frequency space, which is becoming
increasingly important with the new 802.11n WLAN standard.

"Finding and eliminating interference has become a challenge
for all Wi-Fi networks users, such as those in healthcare, manufacturing and
logistics. The new 802.11n technology increases throughput and reliability
significantly, but applications like voice and video are still vulnerable to
non-Wi-Fi interference," said Jussi Kiviniemi, senior product manager at
Ekahau. "The addition of our spectrum analysis tool ensures that Ekahau
customers can continue designing and maintaining the world's best performing
Wi-Fi networks for data, voice, sensors and real-time location applications."

"Spectrum analysis is essential in deploying and
troubleshooting corporate Wi-Fi networks," said Devin Akin, CTO of the CWNP
Program, the industry's de facto standard for Wi-Fi training and
certification. "As an Ekahau partner, CWNP and its global training channel
are delighted to see that Ekahau is providing an easy-to-use and
cost-effective spectrum analysis solution."

The spectrum analyzer will be sold as an optional feature for
purchasers of Ekahau Site Survey Pro or Standard editions. Current Ekahau
Site Survey users can purchase the analysis tool as an upgrade to their
existing software. The solution is available directly from Ekahau or through
certified Ekahau distributors and resellers.

Introductory pricing for the site survey and spectrum analysis
bundle is available until June 30, 2009. For more information, please visit
