Wireless Networking is now a stable and very viable alternative for data networking as it enables greater flexibility for users who need to move around the office or home without the restrictions of fixed cabling structures.

Industries and organisations who have restricted facilities for cabling such as; manufacturing, hotels, hospitals and colleges etc find wireless environments invaluable.

Wireless is also an excellent environment for networks run by small to meduim sized businesses or home users, who often need to relocate offices more often than larger organisations. The network moves with the company, no need to worry about cabling facilities or restrictions, the network is wireless and needs minimal support when moving locations.

Business Benefits: Implementing wireless technology can mean real benefits for your business, some of which can be measured precisely in financial terms and others which, although less easy to measure, have real benefits for your staff and business processes.

Where does wireless fit in?
As broadband technology becomes more widespread, the demand for a higher level of functionality and convenience is growing. Wireless Local Area Networks (also known as Wireless LANs, or WLANs) are becoming increasingly common. Wireless LAN technology is changing the face of local area networks. The majority of Wireless LANs are based on a technology generally known as 802.11b, its IEEE specification number. The trademarked name Wi-Fi has become synonymous with 802.11b (and is much easier to remember).

A wireless local area network gives you the functionality of a traditional Ethernet network but with more flexibility. Data rates are comparable, with the added freedom of mobility for users. Data is transferred over a radio frequency, which eliminates the need for messy and costly cables and patching.

Wi-Fi technology provides a high-speed connection to your local area network, allowing users to move freely around the business environment whilst maintaining a local and an Internet connection. Data can be sent and received at speeds ranging from 54 and up to 108 Mbit/s and can operate at distances over 100 meters.
