    Dear John, <br>
    what about more critical equipment like an E-beam lithography tool?
    Can wireless signal be a problem in terms of electromagnetic noise?
    <br>
    <br>
    Regards<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>
