When to Use Wireless Bridging

---

Building-to-building bridging is ideal for organizations that:

• Are looking for a cost-effective alternative to expensive T-1 service or leased lines.

• Need an inexpensive way to connect separate wireless LANs together.

• Need a method that can provide networking capabilities to unexpected locations.

• Need a redundant, alternative path to the wired (fiber optic and T-1) network backbone.

• Don't want to invest in laying expensive and tough-to-install cables since their network requirements or location may change.

• Want a simple way to connect remote and hard-to-wire locations-between office buildings that aren't already connected to one another, portable classrooms and cross-campus office buildings, and buildings separated by other structures such as bridges or freeways.

• Want to link wireless LANs to wired networks, or broadband Internet access.
