Interesting Take on Voice Over WLAN

Interesting Take on Voice Over WLAN 02/19/2004 12:43 PM
Radioframe is touting its indoor GSM system as better than voice over WLAN: Radioframe sells a platform that extends cellular coverage inside an office building and connects to the office PBX so companies can use their cell phones inside the building. When users are in the building, minutes are cheaper than outside on the wide area cell network. The company's CEO argues that even though usage of the WLAN in the building doesn't cost, the handsets are so much more expensive than cell phones that it makes more sense to use a system like Radioframe's. I did a story a while back on voice over WLAN and found that the handsets cost around the same as standard wired office phones. So the difference could come down to a decision about whether a cell phone offers the same features and functionalities that workers typically want on their phones in the office. Plus, the Radioframe CEO didn't discuss how the costs of deploying and maintaining its network compares to deploying and maintaining a standard WLAN....

Alcatel and Nortel are both promoting voice over WLAN systems by reselling WLAN equipment from Airespace and handsets from SpectraLink: Cisco started selling voice over WLAN handsets last year and ironically it appears that move is actually good news for SpectraLink, which has been making such phones for many years. That's because Cisco competitors like Alcatel and Nortel need to sell voice over WLAN systems to customers but certainly won't sell Cisco phones. Instead they'll use SpectraLink's. This story included some interesting figures form Forrester Research about WLANs. The study found that 20 percent of companies have or are in the process of building WLANs. About 15 percent of companies said they had completed or were in the process of rolling out voice over IP systems, but the story doesn't distinguish if that refers to voice over WLANs or voice on regular wired phones. I suspect that the companies that have deployed voice over WLANs are concentrated in certain market segments like factories or warehouses. It's likely that there are few companies in standard offices using voice over WLAN as the benefits are less clear and because building a WLAN to support voice is a more challenging proposition than constructing a WLAN just for data....

Big WLAN on Campus

Big WLAN on Campus 01/06/2005 03:14 PM
Colleges are the bleeding edge of WLAN technology: I wrote this piece for Mobile Pipeline (my first for them) which started out as a more general best practices article for giant WLANs, and morphed into an article about college WLANs. Why? As I explain in the story, giant WLAN enterprises don't want to talk on or off the record about what they're doing. Academic institutions are happy to oblige. Schools also have the disadvantage of having to support many, many generations of equipment and operating systems. You can't tell a professor to take a flying leap, and some schools may still have five-year-old laptops and desktops that still have to be integrated. It's clear that 802.1X is the next big trend for both schools and enterprises. It solves many problems while adding tremendous policy flexibility. Using 802.1X and L2TP means that you can have smaller VLANs that are segregated by policy, group, or even randomly to balance users among VLANs....

ReefEdge's New WLAN Switch 12/02/2003 12:32 AM
ReefEdge is moving out of its niche space into the broader WLAN networking world: Nancy Gohring's report on ReefEdge's new WLAN switches for InfoWorld reveals a company that's changed its focus from policy-based WLAN management of homogeneous devices to a range of devices that allow RF management of APs from several vendors, and small-office networking. This is a pretty classic company development: customers certainly told them about the gaps in the line-up from all vendors, and ReefEdge moved to fill them. I hear from small offices all the time looking for devices that have enterprise-scale features but without the enterprise-scale price tag because their per-user cost would be 10 or 20 times the enterprise's due to a lack of economy of scale....

iPass Puts the LAN into WLAN 12/02/2003 01:22 PM
iPass to offer intra-LAN management for companies: iPass's iPassConnect client currently allows a firm to provide company-wide access to remote dial-up, wired, and wireless networks using the firm's own directory. The new iPass Wireless LAN Roaming service will let that company's IT department configure the client to connect to the local wireless LAN, too. In its first release, the software allows firm-wide support for a network name (SSID) and WEP key; this version is expected next quarter. WEP keys can be changed remotely by an IT manager. A later release will handle WPA and directly allow 802.1X authentication of users to iPass's system, which allows dynamic WEP or WPA keys to be assigned. In a briefing, iPass said that this extension to their service is in direct response to customer requests that would allow a single package with a single graphical interface and login to manage the entire wireless experience. iPass will offer this service as with its current offerings, direct to large firms and through resellers to other companies....

Car-To-Car Ad-hoc WLAN to be created by
2006 12/22/2004 01:23 AM
Found this rather neat article on The Register, infact, it was something I was discussing with a bunch of friends at college last week! Nice to know we are being heard.

Car makers BMW, Audi, Daimler Chrysler, Volkswagen, Renault and Fiat have won a German government grant to help develop the basis for a standard method for car-to-car wireless data.

NOW is focusing on 802.11 technology and IPv6 to develop "inter-vehicle communication based on ad hoc networking principles". Essentially, it's exploring ways that moving vehicles can automatically set up temporary links with other cars, bikes and trucks in the vicinity, and share traffic information.

With routing capabilities, the whole thing could become a huge 'automobile Internet', with vehicles warning each other - and their drivers - about slow-downs, bad weather, accidents and other road problems.

On a personal note, I really can't even begin to imagine the possibilities here, a road traffic innovation, chat/P2P/file sharing heaven on the roads, or a big headache for the RIAA/MPAA/BSA? It could definitely be all of the above! One thing is for sure, you'll never get bored in traffic anymore.

Of these, Airespace is clearly the most significant. (The mention in the article of Linksys is also significant, but it happened quite a while ago by business trend standards.) Mergers and bankruptcies are signs, the writer maintains, of an industry that's maturing and growing revenue in which winners and losers are sorting out....
