Network Technologies Division works as a partner with the information technology industry to improve the quality, reliability, resilience, robustness, manageability, security, and interoperability of networked systems. As part of the nation's Metrology Laboratory, the Advanced Network Technologies Division conducts research and provides test, measurement, and quality assurance techniques, tools, models, and reference data for emerging network technologies, and develops, demonstrates, and promotes these technologies through reference implementations, test beds, guidelines, and standards.
Networking technology is a key enabling technology that allows institutions to extend their existing network into areas where hardwiring would be expensive or difficult. It allows users to achieve total PC portability and location independence. The technology can now go to the class rather than the reverse, allowing for rapid deployment anywhere– even outdoors – without the inconvenience of taking students out of their normal learning environment because they need network access.
