1.4 Applications

Wireless LAN (WLAN) products are easy to install and highly efficient. The following list describes the benefits of
deploying a wireless access point:
a) Difficult-to-Wire Environments
There are many situations where wires cannot be installed, deployed easily or cannot be hidden from view. Many
older buildings sites, or areas within a building may make the installation of an Ethernet-based LAN impossible,
impractical or expensive.
b) Temporary Workgroups
A deployed wireless access point or several access points, gives businesses the flexibility to create temporary
workgroups/networks in more open areas within a building – auditoriums, amphitheater classrooms, ballrooms,
arenas, exhibition centers, and temporary offices.
c) The Ability to Access Real-Time Information
Doctors/Nurses, Point-of-Sale Employees, and/or Warehouse Workers can access real-time information on their
