Healthcare Wireless Mesh Networks Support More IoT Devices

When more connected devices are added to healthcare wireless networks it becomes more difficult for organizations to control how their network handles increased traffic. Internet of Things (IoT) and other connected devices are constantly communicating with the network to transmit messages. Some IoT devices are more critical than others in a healthcare setting and it’s important for organizations to implement network tools that can help prioritize patient monitoring signals over less important communication. One way organizations can potentially make room for critical IoT devices is to separate low-frequency devices from more urgent and robust signals.
