Wireless Data Center

[jacksparrow007]

Hello, I am a CS student and I am doing my final year project on the topic "Wireless Mesh networks in Data Centers"

There is not much research going on in this field, so I am not able to find many resources.

Is there anyone here who is using wireless technology in data center? I have some questions and I was wondering if anyone could help me.

I do not think you will find much information using a wireless mesh network in a data center. What would be the purpose of using a wireless mesh network in a data center in your terms?

I could say the same, don't expect much here, I had the same problem trying to complete a music mixer project, there is very less information. It is basically research

I think that datacenter usually having so many computer and network switch and routers,
i don't think it's even possible to do that, wifi has computer connection limitation.

Wireless is bit unreliable so I don't think anyone would use wireless for their servers.

Wireless in a data center makes NO sense and never will. You will ALWAYS have more reliable connectivity, better security, and higher throughput over copper or fiber. Just imagining trying to diagnose network issues with a wireless configuration would through the network engineering team into fits, now needing to worry about channels, interference, etc.

I don't even know what the benefit of wireless in the data center would be... Cleaner cabinets? But I don't see that much value in that, at least not nearly enough to put up with the astounding number of negatives.
