Like many health care institutions, Baycrest has more than 200 doctors, nurses and administrators that are constantly on the move. The goal was simple: give doctors, nurses and administrators a single 802.11 a+b/g network over which they could transmit voice and data without huge operational expense and management complexity. Baycrest replaced its existing fat APs that were installed as a feature on the wired network, with an Aruba wireless LAN switching system. With the Aruba system, Baycrest quickly realized the advantage of being able to drop in APs and have them automatically configure and calibrate based on the surrounding RF environment.
