Ekahau Sidekick™, the All-in-One Wi-Fi Site Survey Device, Now Available in Mexico, Brazil

September 14, 2018

Expansion of Wearable Wi-Fi Diagnostics and Measurement Tool into Latin America Fuels Corporate Growth

RESTON, Va., Sept. 14, 2018 — Ekahau, the global leader in Wi-Fi network design solutions, today announced the general availability of its Ekahau Sidekick site survey device in Mexico and Brazil. The expansion comes one year after the product’s initial introduction.

Ekahau Sidekick received NOM safety certification in Mexico, and IFETEL and ANATEL Type certifications in Mexico and Brazil, respectively. Ekahau Sidekick is a comprehensive wireless design device that allows for faster measurement of wireless networks and provides best-in-class Wi-Fi spectrum analysis.

“The Latin American marketplace is a corporate priority as we continue to accelerate sales and grow our already established base of customers and partners,” said Jonathan Eisner, Vice President of Sales and Marketing.

Wi-Fi is mission-critical to businesses of all sizes as more than 55 percent of Internet traffic is generated over Wi-Fi today, according to the 2016 Cisco Visual Networking Index (VNI), and site surveys are at the core of a successful network design. A site survey walk-through is required to validate any enterprise Wi-Fi network to ensure sufficient coverage and performance and minimal interference.

As an all-in-one measurement device, Ekahau Sidekick dramatically streamlines the site survey process by replacing and outperforming the previously-used USB hubs providing greater reliability, accuracy and convenience. It also makes the site survey process faster with state-of-the-art radios and spectrum analyzer, meaning it takes significantly less time for the wireless engineer to measure the wireless coverage and performance at the site. Further, Sidekick enables rapid network problem analysis and troubleshooting reducing the time and effort required to manage existing networks.
