World Wireless Local Area Network Industry

Market Characterized by Changing Standards

“WLAN’s success may be attributed to the dominant WLAN standard, 802.11b, which is facing some competition from the introduction of 802.11a and possible replacement by 802.11g later. In such an environment, where the potential for

confusion is high, dual-mode products are expected to flourish. "
