The company’s latest move, which follows its acquisition of technology specialist WiFiGear, is driven by the urgent need for users to adopt the latest Wi-Fi 6* standard, which is suitable for today’s increasingly device- and application-intensive, IIoT-driven** supply chain operations, according to Renovotec.

Across the industry Wi-Fi and other network infrastructure is becoming out-of-date and insecure, resulting in costly downtime and lower operational performance, comments Renovotec.

Richard Gilliard, CEO, says: “With established supply chain hardware manufacturers now launching Wi-Fi 6-ready computers, the time is right to champion its adoption across the industry. State-of-the-art Wi-Fi is highly sophisticated and runs in an environment where advanced network monitoring can detect problems before they even arise. Wi-Fi 6 does not need to be costly to adopt or complex to deploy, and can benefit organisations of all sizes.”
