• Installation Flexibility - Wireless technology allows
the network to go where wires cannot go.
• Reduced Cost-of-Ownership - While the initial
investment required for wireless LAN hardware
might be higher than the cost of wired LAN
hardware, overall installation expenses and life-
cycle costs will 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.
