A communications network serving geographically separate areas. A WAN can be established by linking together two or more metropolitan area networks, which enables data terminals in one city to access data resources in another city or country.
(Wide Area Network): A geographically broad network that uses phone lines, satellites and radio waves to interact. The most commonly recognised WAN is the Internet.

A wide area network (WAN) serves to interconnect two or more LANs. WAN technology is designed to extend network connectivity to much greater distances than any LAN technology is capable of. Most companies can't afford to build their own WAN, so it is usual to buy WAN service from a service provider. Service providers are in the business of building and selling WAN connectivity; they invest in the equipment, cabling, and training to build transcontinental networks for other businesses to rent.
