Description
The wireless LAN industry is enjoying strong growth, driven by the adoption and support of a single standard, falling costs, productivity and cost savings which the technology provides and critical mass. This final point is crucial: Frost & Sullivan believes that wireless LANs are about to enjoy the networking effect, whereby the more wireless LANs are installed, the more valuable the technology becomes, and exponentially onwards. However, there are also significant issues facing the technology including security issues, next generation standards, end-user confusion and a changing and uncertain regulatory environment. This report analyses these points and provides detailed forecasts for the industry.
