Wireless LAN systems can act as an extension to or even as a replacement for cabled networks. In some cases wireless LANs even provide completely new application possibilities, which can mean a major advance in the way work is organized, or significant cost savings.

- Connecting devices with an Ethernet interface via an access point (client mode)
- Central management by a LANCOM WLAN Controller (managed mode)
- WDS (Wireless Distribution System)
- Data transfer to mobile objects in industrial environments.
