FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Aruba Networks Completes Acquisition of Azalea Networks
SUNNYVALE,
Calif. September 2, 2010 Aruba Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: ARUN), a global leader in
distributed enterprise network solutions, today announced it has completed its acquisition of
privately-held Azalea Networks, a leading supplier of outdoor mesh networks. The acquisition
includes an operations center in Beijing which will complement Arubas existing R&D centers in
Bangalore and Silicon Valley.
Azalea Networks develops highly differentiated mesh products for critical outdoor industrial
applications in the oil and gas, logistics, manufacturing, mining, petrochemical, public safety,
smart grid and transportation sectors. These products will enable Aruba to deliver secure mobility
solutions that span from indoor carpeted spaces to the outdoor industrial enterprise.
In a mesh network, data packets hop wirelessly from radio to radio. Azaleas innovative mesh
technology allows it to also carry latency-sensitive video and voice traffic, with full fidelity,
over long distances. The value of this capability has been field-proven in demanding applications
like the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, in which 600 mesh nodes provided voice, video, and Wi-Fi
access over 19 square miles (50 square kilometers) of the city.
