More companies are adopting wireless solutions for their IT network and internet deployment, including security setup through IP cameras.
According to D-Link president Jacky Chang, the company has seen significant growth in the use of wireless network solutions not only among enterprises, but also small to medium businesses, who are getting into the wireless trend too.
There are more than 4 million users of D-Link solutions worldwide, according to Chang. Those numbers are steadily growing as organizations see the many benefits of going wireless and using end-to-end networking solutions.
Chang said consumers would soon see some commercial grade D-Link products in the consumer space.
