Network

3. Different wireless networks and
their boundaries

4. Components and Structure of
a WLAN

5. Advantages of Using
Wireless Networks
 Mobility
 Ease and Cost of Installation
 Easier Network Modifications
 Increased Network Reliability

6. Mobility
This the primary advantage of wireless technology.
Having this freedom of being able to move around
without wires being connected.

7. Ease and Cost of Installation
The need to have to run cables through walls and ceilings
is eliminated with a Wireless LAN.
Cable implementing example
 Does not need to pay for all of this cabling, and wait
for somebody to install it.

8. Easier Network Modifications
No longer need to remodel office making sure people
who need to use computers are set up next to a wall jack.
Instead focus can be more on making work environment
more effective.

9. Increased Network Reliability
One of the most common network problems is having
cable failures
 With WLAN has no need to be concern about breaks
within cabling, bad splicing of cabling at a network
connection, or a liquid getting on exposed cabling.

10. Advantages of Using
Wireless Networks
 Radio Signal Interference
 Security
 Health Issues over Radio frequency

11. Radio Signal Interference
Wireless devices operate in the same radio frequency as
other devices. Signals from other devices can disrupt
wireless transmissions, or a WLAN device can interfere
with other devices.
 Microwave ovens, elevator motors, photocopying
machines, certain types of outdoor lighting, theft
protection devices, and cordless phones.

12. Security
The wireless signal is broadcast in open air making
security a big concern. Security has improved for WLAN
but it remains a major issue and must be properly
addressed.

13. Health Issues over Radio
frequency
Being a Health Risk is a ongoing issue. Wireless devices
emit low levels of RF. It is a know fact that high levels of
RF with heating effects can cause biological damage.

14. Advantages of Wireless LAN
over Disadvantages
With the three disadvantages named two of them are
easily addressed. Making the advantages of WLAN more
stronger.

15. Advantages over Disadvantages
cont.
To stop radio interference all that is needed is to relocate
wireless device. With RF being a health risk no study has
revealed health problems associated with human body
absorbing low levels of RF energy.

16. Summary
Every minute counts in a small company and wireless
networks are a powerful tool for boosting productivity and
encouraging information sharing.
The popularity of wireless LANs is a testament primarily
to their convenience, cost efficiency, and ease of
integration with other networks and network components.
The majority of computers sold to consumers today come
equipped with all necessary wireless LAN technology
