Hospital patient rooms are increasingly dependent on wireless connectivity to power critical devices like infusion pumps, patient monitors, and smart beds. However, older Wi-Fi networks often suffer from poor signal and dead zones, leading to disruptions in the transmission of vital patient data. With more and more connected devices being used, ranging from environmental controls to wearable trackers, creates a challenge with integration, interference, and network congestion. Additionally, many portable medical devices rely on batteries and frequent recharging or replacements which disrupts patient care.
Modern technologies, such as Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth LE, offer improved connectivity, device integration, and power-saving features to address these challenges. Dual-protocol support allows easier compatibility across a number of devices, while features like Target Wake Time optimize network performance and energy efficiency.
