Wi-Fi technology is advancing beyond the usage model of providing indoor, short-range wireless Internet access for mobile computers. The extended range of Wi-Fi access points for indoor and outdoor applications has the capability of coverage across entire campuses, thus eliminating wiring infrastructures for other types of electronic equipment. Applications and demand for new services will drive Wi-Fi to bring voice, data and video into the space of various offerings. Wi-Fi is evolving from a WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) application to a broadband wireless service with a great deal of opportunities on a global scale.
