LANCOM Systems appoints new vice president of Wi-Fi and switches

He is responsible for the product lines in the area of wireless and wired networks: Wi-Fi access points, WLAN controllers, hotspot solutions, and LAN switches, and will oversee the maintenance, development and lifecycle management of the LAN and Wi-Fi portfolios. He reports to Christian Schallenberg, CTO and member of the extended Management Board at LANCOM.

With an MBA and more than 20 years’ experience in product management in the IT industry, he has held a number of leadership positions. Most recently, he was D-Link’s head of product management for Central Europe. Müller’s other previous positions were at Dell and Hewlett Packard/Compaq.

“With Michael Müller, we are gaining a proven network expert and experienced manager for the further development of our LAN and Wi-Fi portfolio,” said Schallenberg. “We look forward to working with him on key future topics such as Wi-Fi 6 and further expanding our product lines toward enterprise solutions.”

Müller succeeds Jan Buis, who has been responsible for the Wi-Fi and switch portfolio for the last year and a half. As vice president of business development, Jan Buis will focus on further expanding the global LANCOM business within the Rohde & Schwarz corporate group, advising international analysts and providing strategic leadership to OEM customers.
