MCL-Net License (94A101024)

With its modular, component-based architecture, MCL-Collection provides communications servers to handle the communications requirements between your mobile computing and barcode printing applications and your host systems. MCL-Net is the communications server that manages your application's wireless communications for concurrent users in WiFi and WWAN deployments. What's more, MCL-Net is extremely scalable. With the ability to handle from just one device up to 62,500 devices per server, MCL-Net can handle the mobile worker transactions for any enterprise - large or small. Plus, MCL-Net is very flexible. Whether for supporting users with continuous wireless coverage in warehouse operations such as receiving, put-away, picking, or shipping; or users who roam in and out of functional work areas with and without wireless coverage such as an airplane cargo hold in a transport hub; or users who connect to a wireless network only sporadically, as required, for proof of delivery in long haul trucking, MCL-Net supports the full range of wireless connectivity options.
