Wireless Wimbledon

IBM understands that the Club is essentially a small e-business which comes under the spotlight for two weeks of the year. Like all successful e-businesses, the Club is constantly evolving. That's why the IBM Wimbledon solution provides a flexible and scalable platform for the continuous development of new features and applications. 2003 sees 'Wireless Wimbledon' join the IBM Wimbledon on demand offerings.

IBM – supported by Cisco – is using the latest technology to provide a wireless local area network (WLAN) infrastructure. This will enable wireless Internet access, as well as access to the Wimbledon Information System (WIS) – a browser-based multimedia application – in areas which are not covered by the Club's structured wiring network.

The WLAN allows the dissemination of information throughout the venue, via laptops, PDAs and large information boards – without the need to connect. Now tennis fans can access scores, biographies, Order of Play and even video clips in real-time, virtually anywhere. And that's not all – IBM wireless technology also offers:

* Fast and easy installation: The WLAN infrastructure can be installed and broken down in a matter of weeks, making it ideal for the two-week duration of The Championships.
* Enhanced customer satisfaction: A wireless infrastructure supports greater Internet and WIS access – even in remote areas of the grounds. Giving customers exactly what they want, on demand.
* Wireless 'hotspots': An extension of the WLAN technology are wireless hotspots, designed to provide swift access to Wimbledon information for the media and on courtside, without the need to 'plug in'.
* 'Anywhere, anytime' access: Wireless devices and pervasive computing use the latest technology to deliver high quality information to tennis fans in real-time – wherever they are.
