Wireless
Local Area Networks - or WLANs - are an ideal,
no-hassle, no-wires alternative for
networking computers and Internet appliances
in your business or home. They install
easily, expand quickly and reduce the cost
of setting up a wired network.
With a
small investment, you can enjoy the
advantages of a wireless LAN for their high
data rates, security, standards compliance,
compact size and extraordinary value.
Benefits
of WLANs
With
wireless LANs, 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 the
following productivity, service,
convenience, and cost advantages over
traditional wired networks:
-
Mobility - Wireless LAN systems can
provide LAN users with access to
real-time information anywhere in their
organization. This mobility supports
productivity and service opportunities
not possible with wired networks.
-
Installation Speed and
Simplicity - Installing a wireless LAN
system can be fast and easy and can
eliminate the need to pull cable through
walls and ceilings.
-
Installation Flexibility-Wireless
technology allows the network to go
where wire cannot go.
-
Reduced Cost-of-Ownership - While the
initial investment required for wireless
LAN hardware can be higher than the cost
of wired LAN hardware, overall
installation expenses and life-cycle
costs can be significantly lower.
Long-term cost benefits are greatest in
dynamic environments requiring frequent
moves, adds, and changes.
-
Scalability - Wireless LAN systems can be
configured in a variety of topologies to
meet the needs of specific applications
and installations. Configurations are
easily changed and range from
peer-to-peer networks suitable for a
small number of users to full
infrastructure networks of thousands of
users that allows roaming over a broad
area.
