Socket Delivers Cisco CCX To Windows Mobile
Cisco, like any other player in the market, has its own proprietary functionality which it offers up to customers as a bonus over their competition. In the case of wireless (802.11a/b/g/n/etc…) they have the Cisco Compatible Extensions or CCX, which have jumped to version 4.0 and offer a range of security options specific to Cisco WLAN installations. Admins like them because they’re easier to manage and work better than WPA (WEP isn’t a player any more). Socket Mobile has released their new Enhanced Wi-Fi Companion (e-WFC) for Windows Mobile 5.x and 6.x and Window CE 5.x which allows these devices to use Cisco’s LEAP and related wireless security protocols. For some reason, Socket isn’t indicating price or which Wi-Fi radio chipsets it will work with.
