Pushing the evolution of wireless networks | CNET News.com

Cnet has published an article about Airgo Networks.

Now 42 years old, Raleigh's company is flush with $25 million garnered in a Series C round of funding, and he's probably making more than he did that summer. More importantly, his Palo Alto, Calif.-based start-up has additional money to manufacture high volumes of its Wi-Fi chips, based on multiple input multiple output (MIMO) technology. Gear that uses the chips will be compatible with equipment based on current Wi-Fi standards and will make it possible to more than double the current fastest Wi-Fi transfer rates, according to the company. Airgo's technology would allow a corporate buyer, for example, to set up wireless access throughout a building with fewer access points while significantly boosting the amount of data that can be handled.
