Local Area Network Design and Installation

A reliable high performance local area network has become the backbone of many organizations. When you set up the hardware for your local area network you have some fundamental choices to make - Go Wireless, Stay Wired or do both. Wireless networks have brought down start up costs significantly but if not set up correctly can leave you open to data theft, bandwidth theft, system intrusions and unsatisfactory performance. When setting up a wired network, upgrading an existing network or adding wireless capabilities to your network we take into account the following:

• What is the nature of the traffic on the network?

  • Internet browsing of web pages with a few graphics.
  • Streaming multimedia content.
  • VOIP telephone extensions - wired, wireless, or both.
  • Accessing and sharing large data sets and files.
• How many computer systems will be on the network?
• What is the expected growth requirement of the system?

  • Number of computer systems.
  • Nature of traffic.
• Does the system require a DHCP server?
• Do you want to provide a secure Internet hot spot for your visitors?
