These trends are forcing networks, such as the Asian Hospital’s, to work at higher-than-ever speeds to deliver services that ensure patient safety and reliable connectivity for doctors, staff, patients and guests. Additionally, the Asian Hospital requires an easy-to-operate and easy-to-manage WLAN infrastructure.
