Utility-grade Wi-Fi It is possible, it is a necessity…
3
Wi-Fi: Vision “Wi-Fi will overtake Wired as the primary in-building network connection as evidenced by the wave of new devices being introduced without a Wired connectivity option” How many Wi-Fi devices do you use today?
4
Wi-Fi: Speeds “802.11n speeds effectively put Wi-Fi on par with Wired” Ethernet Fast Ethernet Gigabit Ethernet 1990 1995 2000 2005 2010 Enterprise Adoption Rate Wired Wi-Fi 802.11b 802.11ag 802.11n
5
Wi-Fi: Devices “Client devices are being engineered with Wi-Fi as the only network connection” 1990 1995 2000 2005 2010 Enterprise Adoption Rate Desktops Laptops VoIP Phones Notebooks Wired Wi-Fi Smartphones Netbooks iPads Tablets
6
Wi-Fi: Applications “Applications are mobilizing and will increasingly be accessed in-building over Wi-Fi” 1990 1995 2000 2005 2010 Enterprise Adoption Rate Wired Wi-Fi Mainframe Data-centric Client / Server Data, Voice & Video Client / Server Data & Voice over Wi-Fi Data, Voice & Video over Wi-Fi Data over Wi-Fi Cloud-based Data, Voice & Video

Wi-Fi: Critical Success Factors - Applied 3,000+ Software Developers in a conference hall for 5 days getting trained and using new tools from the world’s largest software company using a Wi-Fi network instead of a Wired network…. A Battalion of U.S. Marines deployed under the harshest conditions for weeks at a time with the need to monitor and communicate instantly with their command structure using a Wi-Fi network instead of a Wired network…
16
Wi-Fi: Critical Success Factors - Applied 2,000+ Engineers sitting in a conference hall for several weeks crunching data to determine how to allocate the radio spectrum around the globe using a Wi-Fi network instead of a Wired network… One of the largest and busiest seaports in the world that connected all of their dockside applications and workers using Wi-Fi instead of a Wired network…
