Lancom’s Wifi 6 access points and controllers are certified for a clinical environment. This enables faster data transmission when monitoring patients in hospitals.

Lancom Systems works together with Dräger Medical Systems. Both organizations have successfully tested whether Lancom’s LX-6402 Wi-Fi 6 access point and WLC-1000 WLAN controller are compatible with Dräger OneNet, a medical patient monitoring solution. Thanks to the cooperation, a stable and faster WiFi 6 connection for connecting monitoring devices can be established in hospitals.

Mobile, WiFi-based monitoring is important in daily care for patient treatment and safety. In addition to relaying vital health information, these devices can also be used to wirelessly relay emergency signals and nurse calls to a central monitoring and alarm system.

This information is often critical to patient survival. Therefore, it is important that communication between patient monitors and the Wi-Fi network is secure and reliable. A powerful and stable WLAN infrastructure in combination with a high-quality radio field is crucial here.

In addition, network components and monitors must work together optimally. To make this possible, access points, operating systems and monitors are regularly tested for compatibility. Lancom’s Wifi 6 access points and controllers are now allowed to carry this compatibility certificate.
