A wireless n/w has its advantages from ease of maintenance, support, expansion, neat. name them. But the challenge comes with bottle necks when you have 'peculiar' who push extra-ordinary traffic on your network. Most wireless equipment have a limit into how much they can exchange and if over stretched you experience sluggishness in the n/w.

The cable always works but we all know it comes with a lot of baggage too..

Should you settle for a Wireless have a provision for 'Hand Over' so that you have several access points that are able to load balance traffic and provide for fail over in case one point fails.. Motorola has something of that nature.. If you need more details I can avail.

On a security point of view, structured cabling works better than wireless.

Unless am able to put a rogue device in you cabling, breaking in will
need to have other sorts of assessments incorporated for a full
intrusion.
