mobile technology notebook computers with the Cisco IP Communicator soft phone
application running in a wireless network environment. With the Cisco and Intel solution, Shanghai GM achieved communication goals that
included the reduction of operating expenses and the improvement of seamless communications to gain a competitive advantage through
faster response to market changes.
Cisco, Intel, and the Business Value of Wireless
Cisco and Intel recognize that technology adoption must be driven by a tangible business case. The following are examples of
how the two companies have worked to increase the business relevance of wireless and mobility:
• Joint research initiatives with leading industry analyst firms to define ROI models for pervasive wireless adoption and the use
of mobility services.
• A focus on delivering solutions capable of supporting mission critical business application
Conclusion
The new generation of standards, technologies and products are busting the outdated myths that have kept IT from deploying pervasive,
enterprise-wide wireless networks. Cisco Systems and Intel are at the forefront of building solutions that deliver business value, while at
the same time eliminating the remaining barriers to adoption. As a result, adopters of wireless technologies are experiencing tangible
improvements in productivity that is delivering a quantifiable return on investment. The impact of issues such as security and management
is being dramatically reduced through a continued focus on delivering standards-based improvements. New technology architectures have
decreased the complexity of deployment and ongoing support, which in turn decreases the resources required to maintain a pervasive
wireless network.
These improvements, in combination with exciting new wireless LAN mobility services like voice, location, guest access, and advanced
security, derive even more value from a wireless solution. Only through a pervasive wireless deployment can business equip itself with the
tools required to continue to increase productivity, retain customers and employees, and drive incremental value, revenue growth, and
competitive advantage.
