Mobility Field Day 1
April 13–April 14, 2016
#MFD1, #WFD9
Who: Mobility, Wireless
What: Field Day
When: Past
Location: Silicon Valley

As we expand our connected world wireless is no longer limited to a simple access point and client device. Our connected world today encompasses the traditional laptop but has grown to include mobile handheld devices allowing for customer engagement with bluetooth beacons and utilizing wireless networks for analytic research on traffic patterns. With the expansion of Internet of Things (IoT) using smart embedded systems the wireless infrastructure is emerging as the mission critical backbone providing flexibility in placing sensors in data centers, refineries, malls, and other venues.

Mobility Field Day reflects this evolution, encompassing wireless infrastructure and client devices as well as engagement solutions like MDM, BLE, and analytics.
