  • Abstract
    The latest generation of 802.11, 802.11ac, is slated to be officially approved by the end of 2013. It´s expected to bring further diminution of wired infrastructure within areas such as manufacturing floors and campus uses. The faster 802.11ac technology will also likely boost aggregate performance of legacy Wi-Fi networks, and its wider channels could deliver more data to end devices.
