high performance Wi-Fi-based Real Time Location Systems (RTLS),
today announced a strategic cooperation with Cisco Healthcare in
Germany. Ekahau is already a member of the Cisco Developer Network
(CDN) and Ekahau RTLS solution is CCX- (Cisco Compatible
Extensions) and Cisco Assurewave -certified. On this basis, Ekahau
has implemented advanced features in supporting Cisco wireless
infrastructure and leveraging Cisco’s open API interfaces, and
companies have therefore decided to work in a closer partnership in

“Cisco Healthcare Germany decided to engage in a strategic
partnership with Ekahau because of their advanced technology and
the cost-effective overall solution. Another reason for this choice
was the fact that here in Germany Ekahau provides all its services
in German, which is considered as an important precondition for our
cooperation,” says Axel Barthel, Account Manager Healthcare with
Cisco Healthcare Germany.  The cooperation between Ekahau and
Cisco Healthcare Germany provides the following benefits to the
customers:

• Strong joint Partner ecosystem enabling innovative overall
  solutions in the healthcare market
• Certified and tested interoperability
• Future-proof investments relying on two market and innovation
  leaders
• Simple operation of the joint-solution to ensure maximum
  customer value

Berlin conference in April, the next joint presentation in Germany
is planned for the Medica conference in Düsseldorf in November.

Germany,” says Dirk Lenz, Ekahau’s Regional Manager of Central and
Eastern Europe. “We have already had excellent cooperation in the
