Sanako has a wireless solution, the product is called Sanako Study 1200
that can be configured to work either in a wireless or wired format.
When working in the wireless format, the master station communicates to
the student positions through a wireless gateway. We have purchased
such a system and we are in the process of setting it up. We will use a
wire solution in the normal lab, however when required, we will set up
the DSA-3200 and the system will be used in the wireless configuration.
You will have to investigate you situation closely. If you have
wireless in the area, you may have conflicts that will have to be
resolved.
Should you have any questions, my numbers are listed below.

Subject: wireless lab
Dear Friends,
I am the new language lab coordinator at the University at Albany. As
with all instutions we have a space problem. With classrooms at a
premium, I have been assigned a small and oddly spaced room (less than
500 square feet in an L shape). Additionally, we have classes that
sometimes have 30 students or more. My understanding is that for safety
reasons, this room cannot accommodate more than 15 people.
My solution to this is a mobile lab--a laptop cart that can go to the
instructors' classrooms. So I would appreciate your thoughts on my
dilemma (alternate solutions, caveats in wireless labs, etc).
I am particularly interested in the input of those that have experience
with a wireless language lab.
Thanks,
Robert Summers
