Wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) refers to the popular wireless networking technology enabling internet access and connectivity between devices using radio frequencies rather than cables within proximity of a wireless access point connected to the internet backbone.
How Wi-Fi Relates to Managed IT:
– Allows convenient mobility free from cabling restraints across laptops, phones, wearables and other connected equipment.
– MSPs install and configure equipment, manage authentication, optimize signal strength, analyze usage patterns and troubleshoot issues.
Example:
An MSP implements a high-density Wi-Fi mesh network across a university’s lecture halls, dormitories and outdoor spaces to meet surging bandwidth demands required for streaming eLearning content across student mobile devices.
Key Takeaways:
– Ubiquitous wireless access relied upon across sectors facilitating mobility and flexibility.
– MSPs provide expertise on equipment selection, authentication controls and usage policies.
– WPG strengthens connections, security protections and analytics.
