Wireless is not a technology to be adopted for its own sake. What does it bring to our daily tasks and to the balance sheet?
Mobility - WLANs provide users with access to real-time information
anywhere in their organization. Portability and Accessibility (anytime, anywhere
access) is key. WLANs encourage the growth of “hot spots,” which are areas
outside of the office (or home) that allow users access to the company network or the Internet. Hot spots can be located in public places such as airports,
restaurants, etc.
Reliability - Fewer wires and connectors translates to fewer problems. The
downtime due to cable faults in wired networks is eliminated.
Ease of Installation - No expensive and time-consuming cable installations is
required. No drilling or dropping cables through walls and ceilings. Wireless
eliminates the time, expense and disruption associated with cable.
Affordability – There are significant cost savings primarily as a result of lower cabling/installation costs. In addition, long-term costs are greatly reduced in environments such as large enterprise networks that require frequent moves and changes, as no re cabling is involved.
Scalability - Systems are easily configured and rearranged to accommodate a
variety of office settings and number of users. Once in use, computers equipped
with wireless network cards can be easily relocated.
Installation Flexibility -Wireless can go where wire cannot go. You can use it
in areas where you don't have the capability to run wire, i.e. where cabling
options are strictly limited.
