Comparing Wi-Fi and IR-RFID RTLS for Healthcare

September 3rd, 2009
Purposed for Key Decision Makers at Healthcare Facilities Considering Implementation of a RTLS -- Real-time locating systems (RTLS) are becoming mainstream in healthcare environments. Although currently there is only a 29% adoption rate, this number is expected to grow to nearly 70% by 2011. However, there are many different RTLS offerings as well as remarkable variation in the implementation processes, functionality and long-term success with each system. This White Paper seeks to explore the implementation costs between two popular RTLS solutions: Wi-Fi RFID (radio frequency identification) from CISCO and hardwired Infrared-RFID from Versus, and outline system performance expectations following implementation.
