Wireless-enable any serial device or add embedded 802.11x LAN networking
to electronic devices using "Wireless Device Solutions"
products. Wireless Device
Servers provide a whole new level of flexibility and mobility. You can
connect devices that are inaccessible via cabling. And you can add
intelligence to your business by putting mobile devices, such as medical
instruments or warehouse equipment, on the network.
Application Areas:
These Wireless Device Servers are designed for large-scale wireless installations
especially in the areas of retail/pos, industrial, medical, and banking
sectors, which are traditionally fitted with serial connections. It can
be used in a wide range of retail/POS applications including wireless
payment and receipt printers.

There are a variety of ways that "Wireless Device Servers" from "Wireless Device Solutions"
can be implemented; the two most fundamental options derive from the 802.11
specification itself.
Modes of Operation > Infrastructure Mode Connection
When working in infrastructure mode, the Wireless Device Server
transmits serial device data to the host PC via an access point.

Modes of Operation > Ad-hoc Mode Connection

Benefits of using Wireless Device Servers from "Wireless Device Solutions":
There are three core benefits to integrating a WDS into an automation
or control system.
(1) First, Wireless can reduce cabling costs. This is especially
relevant in hard-to-cable or hazardous areas, listed buildings or where
temporary installations (concerts/conferences, etc.) are required.
(2) Secondly Wireless means increased mobility. Forklift trucks,
instrument trolleys and cranes are just a few of the devices that need
freedom of movement and where Wireless may save on the cost of armoured
cabling systems.
(3) Lastly, wireless technology delivers IP routing of data. The serial
data is routed using IP addressing which means the data can be forwarded
using a wired or wireless LAN,WAN or even the Internet.
Apart from the tangible savings, there is also an element of prestige
for anyone using leading-edge technology. Both system integrator and
end-user can benefit from marketing opportunities generated by use of
new wireless applications.
