      We at GT use it similarly. <br>
      <br>
      Same suggestion, install it.<br>

      <div>We provide wireless access in our clean room for use of
        laptops, iPads, smart phones, and similar devices. My guess is
        that if you don't provide wireless, you'll have a collection of
        self-installed wireless access points … which will probably
        cause you more headaches than an "official" installation. </div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>Clean rooms often provide a challenge in terms of getting
        good wireless coverage given all of the steel that tends to
        block good coverage. Note, we also have a collection of wireless
        sensors that are monitoring a variety of facility utilities. </div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>To my knowledge, we've never seen problems with wireless
        signals interfering with equipment. Things like RF supplies and
        "bang-bang" heater circuits seem to offer greater potential for
        interference … often by inducing noise on AC lines. </div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>I would suggest that you add wireless to the list of
        utilities in you clean room. <br>

            <p>Dear Colleagues, Have any of you implemented wireless
              networks inside your cleanrooms? </p>
            <p>We are constructing a new facility and I was asked if I
              wanted wireless installed and my first reaction was why?
              The clean-bays will already be full of hard line network
              ports. </p>
            <p>If you are using a wireless network what are you using it
