Introduction
The enterprise WLAN market is now moving away from trial implementation stage and towards campus-wide coverage. To facilitate this move, centralized management of WLAN solutions is set to become increasingly commonplace over the next three years, which will in turn drive the potential of voice over WLAN services.

Scope
Considers the key trends and issues that are impacting upon the development of the enterprise WLAN sector.
Segments WLAN opportunities by geography, vertical market, technology and sizeband, providing revenue forecasts from 2004 to 2008.
Highlights
Enterprise WLAN infrastructure revenues will grow from $890 million in 2004 to almost $1.4 billion in 2008. Access points accounted for around 59% of equipment revenues in 2004, although a combination of falling prices and increased spend on wireless switches will dilute the importance of these devices in revenue terms.

North America will remain the largest market with regard to WLAN spending, with enterprises in the region investing over $500 million in related equipment in 2008.

Increasing complexity and scope are driving the need for more centralized management of WLAN solutions. As a result, revenues relating to wireless switches/appliances are set to grow rapidly over the next three years.

Reasons to Purchase
Quantification of the revenue opportunities for both WLAN equipment vendors and third party integrators and consulting companies to 2008.
Provides a framework for conceptualizing WLAN opportunities thereby improving vendors' go-to-market approach.
