Am I missing the point
So "Rather than try to run a LAN cable to each device, the Cisco "borderless networks" strategy wants customers to put baby Ethernet switches in cruise ship berths, hotel rooms, kiosks, classrooms and conference rooms, and so forth and then run just one wire from these locations back to the wiring closet."
Hmmm, from where I stand this opens the network up to attack more?
How many ports is someone likely to need in a Cruise ship / hotel room / kiosk?
Yet another example of CISCO trying to reinvent something that dont need it.
