The University of Michigan Health System (UMHS) is one of the largest health care complexes in the world. UMHS administrators began looking into options for providing wireless mobility to hospital and medical school faculty, staff, and students. The administration determined that the solution would be to deploy wireless networking, and selected Cisco Aironet technology on which to build its wireless network. In the latter part of 2001 Cisco Aironet 350 Series access points were installed throughout the hospitals and specialization centers. The Medical Center, which covers approximately 4.5 million square feet, is now served by a single wireless local area network (WLAN).
