Partner Solution Description
The MobileAccessVE architecture enhances enterprise cellular coverage
by taking advantage of existing LAN cabling for cellular signal distribution
while maintaining full Ethernet and wireless LAN capabilities. Tested and
validated with the Cisco Unified Wireless Network, the VE solution pro-
vides a worry-free, plug-and- play design that uses existing unshielded
twisted pair (UTP) Category 5/6 cabling infrastructure to distribute reliable
cellular services to the enterprise at a cost that is comparatively lower than
conventional solutions.

With the VE solution, a wireless operator signal source is established,
bringing RF signals from the outside into the building. Cellular signals are
then transported to VE Controllers housed alongside Cisco Wireless LAN
Controllers. The VE Controller is connected to Ethernet via an e-Switch
and then passes cellular and Ethernet signals, as well as standard Power-
over-Ethernet (PoE) to VE Access Pods, which are plugged into RJ-45 jacks
or installed on ceilings. Ethernet signals and PoE are passed on to Cisco
access points connected directly onto VE Access Pods. Using PoE, both
VE pods and Cisco access points are powered without additional cabling
requirements, and neither network is impacted by an outage in the other.
The result is a converged cellular and Wi-Fi solution.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Enterprises of all sizes are challenged to enhance the productivity
of their mobile workforce by delivering pervasive cellular and Wi-Fi
network access that meets the diverse requirements of their organi-
zations. These requirements include delivering the full features and
functionality of 802.11 wireless services while addressing increased
demand for indoor cellular services and emerging fourth generation
(4G) applications over data-intensive smartphones.
Cisco and MobileAccess are the first to deliver a new integrated cellu-
lar and Wi-Fi solution that addresses growing customer demands for a
pervasive, reliable mobility experience anywhere throughout the enter-
prise at a fraction of the cost of alternative solutions.

Unified Wireless Network. The MobileAccessVE and Cisco
solution transparently distribute cellular RF signals inside of buildings
over Category 5 or 6 (Cat 5/6) Ethernet infrastructure for second-
generation (2G), third-generation (3G), and 4G services, without affect-
ing the performance of wired or wireless LAN traffic or consuming
LAN capacity. This flexible approach lets enterprises deliver reliable,
in-building cellular and Wi-Fi coverage while minimizing the disruption
and deployment costs associated with new cabling projects.
