[Cabling]
The importance of cabling should not be overlooked
or undervalued. Cabling ties everything together
and is the lifeline of the entire information network.
Cabling comes in
several varieties including coax, twisted pair
and fibre.
[Coax
Cable]
Coax, along with twisted pair, is a common type
of cabling for small networks. It is cheap and
has the benefit of not requiring a hub and can
be used to connect a large number of computers
together in a single 'string'. Coax was the first
standard cabling type and is not as flexible,
or cannot support high-speed technologies, like
the newer cabling standards.
[Twisted
Pair Cabling]
Twisted pair cabling is the newer standard of
cabling. It's low cost, ability to make easy additions
and changes to the network and built in path for
high-speed technologies such as fast ethernet
make it more advantageous and flexible than older
standards of cabling.
[Fibre]
Fibre can be used over greater distances than
copper cables as the signal does not lose strength
the further down the wire it travels. It is also
light-weight making it ideal for applications
where running copper wire would be impractical.
Also by using multiplexers, the ability to send
more than one signal down the wire at a time,
one piece of fibre could replace hundreds of copper
cables. Another major benefit is it's immunity
to Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) and therefore
can be used where electrical isolation is needed.
Complete local
area network installation and configuration.
We offer a broad
range of wireless network solutions for corporate,
small business, and home office clients.
Wireless networks
are generally more cost effective than traditional
local area networks. The primary reason is that
the installation cost of a traditional local
area network (i.e. laying wires through walls
or along baseboards, installing outlets, etc.)
far exceed the slighly higher cost of the wireless
networking equipment.
An additional benefit of a wireless network
is the easy with which additional users are
added to the network. The process amounts to
little more than the installation of a wireless
network card in the new user's computer. Recently,
many computer manufacturers, such as Dell, have
begun including wireless network cards in their
retail computer offerings.
