Trend in Wireless Device Usage
In recent years, the global trend of widespread wireless device adoption has become increasingly evident. Modern laptops, tablets, and mobile phones possess significant computing power, allowing them to replace desktop computers in many aspects and greatly enhance user mobility
Cost Reduction
Wireless data transmission technologies significantly reduce network infrastructure costs by eliminating the need for complex cable system design and installation
Use Case
Mobile wireless devices allow high-speed connections to the company's network infrastructure
The fundamental environment for the operation of IoT (Internet of Things)
High-accuracy indoor navigation, Wi-Fi analytics
If creating the network involves high installation costs, it is possible to completely replace the traditional wired network
Establishing a network connection to a remote location or an area of the network that is difficult to reach
The ability for employees to use personal mobile devices to access corporate OT services using BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) technology
Subsystem Components
Depending on the requirements and tasks, a wireless local area network typically consists of three types of devices in most cases
01; Wireless Network Adapter; A hardware component of mobile devices that implements wireless data transmission technology. As a rule, all modern devices are already equipped with these, but if you need to connect a desktop computer to a wireless network, you may need to install a separate adapter;
02; Wireless Network Access Point; This device is a base station designed to provide wireless access to the pre-existing network infrastructure for mobile clients. Wireless access points have a port to connect to a wired network, which allows you to link them to wired switches and merge wired and wireless networks into a single network infrastructure. Additionally, access points can be equipped with various types of antennas, enabling you to solve different tasks when setting up a network, whether it's connecting numerous nearby wireless terminals or linking remote access points over long distances;
03; Wireless Network Controller; Allows the automation of the management process of wireless network infrastructure. The controller is also responsible for the security, monitoring, and distribution of load across access points, enabling the central management of the wireless network;
