Airwave Wireless
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Airwave Wireless, Inc. was founded in 2000, its original mission was to create and operate a national, for-profit 802.11 "hotspot" network. AirWave deployed a pilot network with 130-plus hotspots and more than 1,000 subscribers by early 2001. Through this unique experience, the company's founders were among the first to see that the biggest technical hurdle to operating a large, geographically disparate wireless network was the lack of specialized tools for centrally managing that network. Recognizing an enormous market need, the founders of AirWave redirected the company to focus exclusively on developing AirWave Management Platform software. The first commercial version of the AMP software shipped in early 2002.
The software is designed for wireless LAN management, monitoring and security.
The company is headquartered in San Mateo, California, with sales offices in Dallas, Boston, Chicago, Atlanta, and Barcelona.
