An alternative to the traditional LAN technology.

Establishing a local area network (LAN) requires the installation of cabling. Monetary cost is an important issue in the installation of cabling. However, there are other significant factors to consider in the installation of LAN cabling, such as, establishing a temporary LAN. Some companies need a LAN during a trade exhibition but are constrained by time, as a trade exhibition is typically of a two to three day duration. Wiring an exhibition trade booth is not feasible primarily because of the limited time available. One way is to install a Wireless LAN (WLAN). A WLAN is also a LAN but without the cabling associated in establishing a computer network. We provide WLAN solutions.


Wireless LAN Solutions

Most WLANs are employed to augment rather than replace wired LANs. WLANs provide connectivity to a LAN in places where wiring is difficult, costly, or inconvenient to employ. Common applications for WLANs include the following:

  • Hospitals, to record patient information at bedside
  • Car rental companies, to input car-return information
  • Warehouses and retail shops, to keep inventories
  • Restaurants, to place orders
  • Offices, to extend networks into a boardrooms and libraries
  • Schools, for computer sharing between classrooms

Building-to-building bridges serve as attractive alternatives to wired, long distance network connections, when

  1. Phone company lines are too expensive or slow,
  2. Distance/terrain makes campus wiring impossible or difficult,
  3. Companies want to manage their own interoffice communications
