26 Wireless Networking Technology
In a wireless networking technology, no wires or physical media is used for connecting
computers. It uses electromagnetic waves like infrared, microwave and radio waves for
transmission of the data. There are two types of wireless technologies named Wi-Fi and
Bluetooth.
Wi-Fi
Wi–Fi is the most popular wireless communication technology
used for homes, private business LANs and public hotspots. A
Wi-Fi-enabled device such as a PC, video game console, mobile
phones or MP3 player can connect to the Internet when it
comes within the range of a wireless network. Wi-Fi allows us
to deploy local area networks without wires thus reduces the
cost of the network expansion. Wi-Fi
Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a technology that enables wireless
communication between low-power consumption devices
within a short range (1 meter, 10 meters, and 100 meters).
It facilitates communication between different devices
when they are within a required range. The latest
version of Bluetooth, Bluetooth 5.4 technology provides
Bluetooth data transfer speed up to 2 Mbps.
