PowerPackage Wireless LAN

Architecture, Design, Advanced Features

ExperTeach Networking Logo

This PowerPackage combines the contents of the courses Wireless LAN I and Wireless LAN II in one event.

Wireless LANs have established themselves as a supplement to wired LANs in corporate networks long since. In local networks and at hotspots they even replace the Ethernet to a large extent, and an end of the WLAN boom is not yet in sight. The course at hand gives an introduction to WLAN technology and WLAN application. The participants get to know the different WAN technologies and standards. The course enables them to understand WLAN architecture and to solve planning and dimensioning tasks. Hands-on exercises at the test network provide the reference to practical application.

Print E-Book PDF Symbol You will receive the comprehensive documentation package of the ExperTeach Networking series – printed documentation, e-book, and personalized PDF! As online participant, you will receive the e-book and the personalized PDF.

Target Group

The course offers a hands-on and comprehensive insight into Wireless LAN technology for network designers, administrators, and sales-oriented employees.

Knowledge Prerequisites

Apart from basic network and IT know-how, no special knowledge is required for a successful participation in this course. Know-how of the LAN sector will be helpful in the discussion of practice-related case studies.

Classroom training

Do you prefer the classic training method? A course in one of our Training Centers, with a competent trainer and the direct exchange between all course participants? Then you should book one of our classroom training dates!

Hybrid training

Hybrid training means that online participants can additionally attend a classroom course. The dynamics of a real seminar are maintained, and the online participants are able to benefit from that. Online participants of a hybrid course use a collaboration platform, such as WebEx Training Center or Saba Meeting. To do this, a PC with browser and Internet access is required, as well as a headset and ideally a Web cam. In the seminar room, we use specially developed and customized audio- and video-technologies. This makes sure that the communication between all persons involved works in a convenient and fault-free way.

Online training

You wish to attend a course in online mode? We offer you online course dates for this course topic. To attend these seminars, you need to have a PC with Internet access (minimum data rate 1Mbps), a headset when working via VoIP and optionally a camera. For further information and technical recommendations, please refer to.

Tailor-made courses

You need a special course for your team? In addition to our standard offer, we will also support you in creating your customized courses, which precisely meet your individual demands. We will be glad to consult you and create an individual offer for you.
