Increased Mobile Employee Productivity
With HiPath Wireless and the All Wireless Office, employees are empowered with voice and data network access regardless of where they are on site and which device they have available. Furthermore, employees are reachable at a single office number regardless of where they are on site, which means they are less frequently called by colleagues on their mobile phones. This is particularly powerful in large environments when travel-time between meeting locations is significant and employees can communicate or work during periods of time spent away from their desks, such as between meetings.

Reduced Mobile Network Fees
Due to its industry-leading VoWLAN capabilities, HiPath Wireless enables mobile users to leverage the existing enterprise VoIP network even when they are away from their desks. While moving about the office employees can place calls over the HiPath Wireless network rather than using the public mobile network. As a result, VoWLAN can considerably reduce mobile communication costs.

Reduced Operational Costs of Maintaining Multiple Networks
HiPath Wireless alleviates operational costs by converging voice and data onto a single network. State-of-the-art management tools greatly simplify MAC and the need for on-site maintenance. HiPath Wireless’ innovative architecture and power-conservation features make it remarkably easy to deploy fast and reliable 802.11n WLAN without major network changes.

The value of HiPath Wireless and the All Wireless Enterprise can be summarised into these key benefits:

• Increased employee productivity - Mobile employees can communicate and have pervasive wireless access to corporate data and applications from anywhere on site, resulting in increased employee productivity (more work done faster), responsiveness, and decision making.

• Reduced mobile network communication costs - According to Frost & Sullivan, using VoWLAN can save between 15 and 40 percent on cellular and PSTN calls.

• Consolidated voice & data infrastructure - HiPath Wireless’ ability can accommodate a number of voice and data solutions on a single infrastructure, making it possible to eliminate redundant infrastructure that would be required for independent point solutions. This can result in significant capital and operational cost savings. An all wireless enterprise also reduces the cabling and switching costs of a typical wired LAN deployment.

• Faster solution deployment - HiPath Wireless’ open, flexible architecture makes it easy to centrally segment and optimise the network without the need for complex, cross-network switch and device configuration. This provides the foundation for deploying multiple high-performance solutions across the enterprise with minimal cost and effort.

• Business process efficiency - The introduction of mobility to previously static business processes (e.g. mobile voice) or the ability to bring technology to low-tech business processes (eg. paperless work order entry) will create numerous efficiencies that can result in significant cost savings and business process improvements.
