The definition of new wireless LAN standards is a continuous process for creating, as well as improving applications and for making them more secure. The best-known wireless LAN standards by IEEE are certainly 802.11n for wireless LAN applications up to 600 Mbit/s and of course the 802.11ac standards which have recently been introduced into the market, allowing applications up to 6.7 Gbps....
Customer branch offices frequently find themselves with limited resources for WAN connectivity, this being a common problem associated to communications. WAN optimization under these circumstances makes sense, as the rise in productivity results in improved end customer perception. Through different techniques, optimization reduces both infrastructure and bandwidth costs, allows for centralized...
The coming generation of enterprise Wi-Fi Access Points will allow higher than 1 Gbps sustained payload data rates between the radio interface and the wired network to which they are connected. For this reason, current LAN infrastructure, that is mostly Gigabit Ethernet over CAT5e cabling, will become the bottleneck on the LAN communications. The alternatives to overcome this bottleneck are...
Nowadays, there are more and more applications running on a mobile environment such as, M2M, services for passengers, telemetering, etc… These applications often rely on several wireless access technologies (LTE, 3G, Wi-Fi, Satellite…) to implement the connectivity to the on-board network. In these kind of scenarios, very often the WAN IP changes have an impact on the continuity of applications...
Years ago there was a revolution in overseas travel; we no longer needed to learn the routes of a nation because satellites were able to tell us our position in real time (using GPS). This technology was taken to another level by the professional market with the appearance of RTLS (Real Time Location Systems). These systems could use GPS signals, RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) or other...
Wi-Fi has been one of the technologies that has increased most in the last years, especially due to the large spread of mobile devices. From laptop PC’s to tablets or smart phones, wi-fi is being used by companies internally to improve their work processes, but also many companies (especially service companies) offer their clients Wi-Fi, as an added value service. Indeed keeping clients...
