Wireless Connectivity Standards

Vocera uses the IEEE 802.11 to ensure seamless connectivity and reliable communication.

To understand 802.11, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n, 802.11k, 802.11r, and 802.11w, refer to http://standards.ieee.org/about/get/802/802.11.html.

Both the B3000n and B3000 automatically use the 802.11b and 802.11g data rates that are enabled on the access points. For optimal coverage, Vocera recommends that you enable 802.11g and 802.11a data rates per site. However, the implementation at each site varies based on the access point you use.

To improve performance, roaming, and security, Vocera recommends that you also enable 802.11n, 802.11k, and 802.11r.
