Summary
Hazardous and industrial campuses are deploying intricate wired and wireless networking infrastructure to support key applications and processes. Whether supporting a single building or a large multibuilding facility, most organizations need to provide access to data and voice communications throughout their facilities. While providing quality coverage and bandwidth throughout the facilities are important, there is also a vital need to ensure that the network can operate in adverse environments, without creating hazards such as explosions or malfunctions. This need is driving the development and installation of new products and technologies that can handle the rigorous requirements of potentially difficult environments.
