With an Optical LAN delivering gigabit , multi gigabit and even 10 gigabit speeds to wireless access points , mobile computers , forklifts , scanning tools , label printers , cameras , digital signage and more , every warehouse worker is better equipped to process the continuously increasing volume of information that must be managed quickly and efficiently every day .

No more telecom equipment closets every 100 meters ; no more extra power supplies for equipment rooms : and no more air-conditioning , special cable channels for CAT5 / 6 cabling and other support requirements . The floor space freed up can be used more productively for revenue generating activities .
