Associate Program Material Appendix B Applications of Wireless Technologies Each of the following images depicts a real-life scenario in which a wireless technology is being used. Review the five images below and follow the corresponding instructions. Scenario 1 [pic] Identify the wireless technology being used in this scenario. The wireless technology in this scenario is a Wireless LAN Bridge. Explain why this technology is appropriate for this scenario. The Point-to-Point technology is appropriate for this scenario because it typically is used to connect two or more buildings wired networks. One point is know as the Root and all other points are the Non- Roots. Specify the standard transmission distance and transfer speed for the wireless technology you identified. The standard transmission distance is up to 24 miles and transfer speeds are using the 802.11 wireless standard which with 802.11n can reach speeds of over 450Mbps. Use the Internet to research one to two applications of the identified wireless technology. List each application found. Reference the websites you used to locate this information. On Cisco.com, They describe how college campuses are using Wireless LAN Bridges to connect all their buildings together without the use of expensive wired alternatives. Another use Cisco demonstrated was the ability to set up a temporary network connected back to the main office using the wireless bridge, maybe for a triage camp after a natural disaster. Scenario 2 [pic] Identify the wireless technology being used in this scenario. The technology being used is Bluetooth. This technology is typically used to transfer sound between two devices, although it can be used to transfer data as well. Explain why this technology is appropriate for this scenario. This technology is appropriate because it allows the
