attachment. An infrastructure need not be buried in the ground or hidden behind the walls—an

"infrastructure" can move and change at the speed of the organization. This technology has several

IT professionals or business executives who want mobility within the enterprise, perhaps in

addition to a traditional wired network

Business owners or IT directors who need flexibility for frequent LAN wiring changes, either
