Reasons for Wireless Networks
Wireless networks are especially useful for the following situations:
- Spaces where cabling would be impossible or inconvenient. These include open lobbies, inaccessible parts of buildings, older buildings, historical buildings where renovation is prohibited, and outdoor installations.
- People who move around a lot within their work environment. Network administrators, for instance, must troubleshoot a large office network. Nurses and doctors need to make rounds at a hospital.
- Temporary installations. These situations include any temporary department set up for a specific purpose that soon will be torn down or relocated.
- People who travel outside of the work environment and need instantaneous access to network resources.
