Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli Sails Ahead with CommScope’s RUCKUS - Seite 2

Smooth sailing with the finest talent and technology available

Traditionally, the America’s Cup is held in the waters of the defending champion, which meant the Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli team had to move its boats and base of operations from its headquarters in Sardinia, Italy to Auckland, New Zealand. Fortunately, the team was able to dedicate full attention to race preparation rather than IT operations thanks to a seamless transition from on-premises-based network management in Sardinia to RUCKUS Cloud management for the New Zealand operations.

Security is tight at the America’s Cup and espionage is a legitimate concern for all teams. To ensure rigorous end-to-end network security, Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli has implemented RUCKUS Cloudpath. The software assigns a digital certificate to each staff member, and once authorized, users don’t have to re-enter credentials. If there’s any problem with a user on the network, it takes less than a minute to revoke that person’s credentials without affecting anyone else.

“The America’s Cup is the oldest international sporting trophy and is considered the world’s most important sailing event, won through mastery of sport and technology. The Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli team is focused on state-of-the art sailing backed by reliable Wi-Fi connectivity,” said Bart Giordano, senior vice president of sales for CommScope’s RUCKUS business. “The journey to Auckland has been incredible and CommScope is thrilled to be part of this continued collaboration with a team of exceptional people.”
