Dell'Oro: Supply Shortages Dampen Wireless LAN Market in Q2
The worldwide Wireless LAN market sales were constrained by supply shortages affecting a number of equipment manufacturers, according to a new report from Dell’Oro Group.. The most significant impact on sales levels came from the enterprise class of products, followed by products targeting the Small Office Home Office users.
“The overall Wireless LAN market sales were about flat quarter to quarter at just under $1.0 billion,” said Tam Dell’Oro President and Founder of Dell’Oro Group. “We calculate that sales would have risen about 5 percent had it not been for component shortages such as high speed memory chipsets. US government stimulus programs are turning into sales orders faster than people expected. It is not clear that the shortages are over,” added Dell’Oro. http://www.DellOro.com

You just read about Dell. One of the companies whose work it now carries:
Force10 Networks built High-density Ethernet switches and routers. What became of it?
Force10 Networks brought High-density Ethernet switches and routers to Networking. That work was distinctive enough to lead to its acquisition by Dell for US$700M. The standalone name now passes into the archive — but the team and technology continue inside Dell today. One of 430 names here whose work outlived the company.
You just read about Wi-Fi. Here is what it replaced:
Wireless USB (UWB) served 2005–2010. What ultimately replaced it?
Wireless USB (UWB) carried USB over ultrawideband radio (3.1-10.6 GHz) at short range, spreading signals across a huge bandwidth at low power for cable-free peripherals. Its job passed to Wi-Fi — but the problem it solved, and the ideas it proved, live on in what replaced it. The standard rests here in the archive. One of 198 technologies here that opened a door and then held it for the next.
