The number of businesses using voice over wireless local area networks (VoWLAN) is set to triple over the next two years, according to analysts.
A new report from Infonetics Research has found that 10 per cent of north American businesses are now using VoWLAN. The researchers expect that percentage to reach 31 per cent by 2007.
The study found that the larger the organisation, the more likely it will be to adopt WLAN technology - minus any consideration for voice - with 57 per cent of small businesses, 62 per cent of medium businesses and 72 per cent of large businesses looking to deploy a wireless LAN before 2009.
The main reasons now holding back the uptake of wireless LANs in business are fears over security and privacy, Infonetics said.
