1-5 Applications

The wireless LAN products are easy to install and highly efficient. The following list describes some of the

many applications made possible through the power and flexibility of wireless LANs:

1. Difficult-to-wire environments

There are many situations where wires can not or not easily be laid. Historic buildings, older buildings,

open areas and across busy streets make the installation of LANs either impossible or very expensive.

2. Temporary workgroups

Consider situations in parks, athletic arenas, exhibitions, disaster-recovery, temporary office and

construction sites where one wants a temporary WLAN established and removed.

3. The ability to access real-time information

Doctors/nurses, point-of-sale employees, and warehouse workers can access real-time information while

dealing with patients, serving customers and processing information.

4. Frequently changed environments

Show rooms, meeting rooms, retail stores, and manufacturing sites where frequently rearrange the

workplace.

5. Small Office and Home Office (SOHO) networks

SOHO users need a cost-effective, easy and quick installation of a small network.

6. Wireless extensions to Ethernet networks

Network managers in dynamic environments can minimize the overhead caused by moves, extensions to
