Why install a wireless network? The
widespread reliance on networking in business and the meteoric growth of
the Internet and online services are strong testimonies to the benefits of
shared data and shared resources. With wireless LANs, your users can
access shared information without looking for a place to plug in, and
network managers can set up or augment networks without installing or
moving wires. Wireless LANs offer many productivity, convenience, and cost
advantages over traditional wired networks.
Wireless LANs frequently augment rather
than replace wired LAN networks - often providing the final few meters of
connectivity between a wired network and the mobile user. Shown below are
some of the many applications made possible through the power and
flexibility of wireless LANs:
- Network managers in dynamic
environments minimize the overhead caused by moves, extensions to
networks, and other changes with wireless LANs.
- Consulting or accounting audit teams or
small workgroups increase productivity with quick network setup.
- Doctors and nurses in hospitals are
more productive because hand-held or notebook computers with wireless
LAN capability deliver patient information instantly.
- Training sites at corporations and
students at universities use wireless connectivity to ease access to
information, information exchanges, and learning.
- Network managers installing networked
computers in older buildings find that wireless LANs are a
cost-effective network infrastructure solution.
- Trade show and branch office workers
minimize setup requirements by installing pre-configured wireless LANs
needing no local MIS support.
- Warehouse workers use wireless LANs to
exchange information with central databases, thereby increasing
productivity.
- Network managers implement wireless
LANs to provide backup for mission-critical applications running on
wired networks.
- Senior executives in meetings make
quicker decisions because they have real-time information at their
fingertips.
