Wireless LAN (WLAN) products are easy to install and
highlyefcient. Thefollowing listdescribes someof the
many applications made possible through the power and
exibilityofWLANs:
• Difcult-to-Wire Environments: There are many situations where
wirescannotbeinstalled,deployedeasily,orcannotbehiddenfrom
view. Older buildings, sites with multiplebuildings, and/or areas
that make the installation of a Ethernet-based LAN impossible,
