| Wireless networking
is more than simply placing an Access Point and setting up devices
to communicate with it. Teched Network Solutions understands
not only the products required to build out a cost effective
wireless network, but also the principles and standards behind
effective, secure and resilient deployments.
Teched can help you design a wirless solution, recommend appropriate
hardware and software components, and integrate access points,
wireless LAN client adapters, bridges, antennas and accessories.
teched can also help you create a wireless security strategy
that is well integrated with the security plan for your entire
school network.
Benefits:
Mobility: provide mobile users
with access to real-time information so that they can roam around
in the network without getting disconnected from the network.
This mobility supports productivity and service opportunities
not possible with wired networks.
Installation speed and simplicity:
installing a wireless system can be fast and easy and can eliminate
the need to pull cable through walls and ceilings.
Reach of the network: the network can be extended to places
which can not be wired
More Flexibility: wireless
networks offer more flexibility and adapt easily to changes
in the configuration of the network.
Reduced cost of ownership:
while the initial investment required for wireless network hardware
can be higher than the cost of wired network hardware, overall
installation expenses and life-cycle costs can be significantly
lower in dynamic environments.
Scalability: wireless systems
can be configured in a variety of topologies to meet the needs
of specific applications and installations. Configurations can
be easily changed and range from peer-to-peer networks suitable
for a small number of users to large infrastructure networks
that enable roaming over a broad area
The main advantage of wireless is that students
can use the computers anywhere in the wireless region, without
having to be "tethered" to the network. This has considerable
advantages for laptop, "palm" or Pocket PC machines.
There is no doubt that this technology will be the way to go
as schools start to invest in portable technology and flexible
curriculum delivery.
