German Beverage Supplier Deploys Aerohive Networks Wireless Infrastructure

MUNICH & SUNNYVALE, Calif.--()--Aerohive Networks® (NYSE:HIVE) provided top German beverage logistics provider Lippert with an innovative wireless solutions for its inventory and logistics management infrastructure. The new system provides a close interconnection between the company's locations, improved internal operating efficiency, and makes it easy to manage the network remotely.

News Facts

  • The Lippert group is one of the leading specialist beverage wholesalers in the states of Bavaria, Saxony, and Thuringia. As part of the “TOP-Getränke” alliance, Lippert is one of Germany's five top selling retailers. The group now uses WLAN solutions supplied by Aerohive Networks. The IT department's priorities were to simplify its site networking - referred to by Aerohive as "branch on demand" - achieve comprehensive coverage of all warehouses, and install a VoIP-capable telecommunications system.
  • The company's premises have some very high ceilings and high levels of humidity, making it a challenge to create an effective WLAN network. The new Aerohive WLAN network enables voice and data applications to work perfectly in these difficult conditions, with efficient information exchange between servers and user hardware.
  • Warehouse workers receive logistics instructions through mobile barcode scanners connected to access points via the WLAN and are therefore able to identify and load merchandise faster. This has significantly improved the logistics efficiency of the warehouses.

HiveManager® lets us act as system administrators from any of the company's locations. And IBIS can provide remote support at any time if we need it.”

“The infrastructure is fully wireless, so Lippert has a single, stable network for data and telephony,” said Karl-Heinz Goller, president of Lippert's IT consultant IBIS. “The new system is certified by Aerohive and ascom, the Swiss telecoms group.”
