Network Infrastructure Setup
Back to ServicesNetworking is the process of linking two or more computing devices for sharing data. The connection so obtained is called as a network. A network is a mixture of both hardware and software.
Network Infrastructure forms the backbone of your IT operations, so it must provide reliable, secure support for converged data, wireless, real-time applications, virtualized data centres and more.
Sharing data in a secure and faster way plays an important role in the functioning of an organisation. In today’s world, where time is money accessing business specific information in a single click is of utmost importance. Data sharing helps in decision making, streamlining the processes, etc.
We at Innovation Evolved help you in efficiently setting up your organisation’s network infrastructure by providing both wired and wireless network setup.
Our professional engineers having strong technical experience in troubleshooting & provisioning solution specific to your industry, incorporating sound network solutions that also caters for web & remote scenarios.
We manage our client's network & optimize it to support future growth.
Wired LAN and WAN:
In wired network Ethernet cable is used to connect the computers to the network router. Wired networks are less expensive, faster, and more secure than wireless networks. However, the same Ethernet cable can be a disadvantage if the devices on the network increase. All computers on a wired network must be connected by Ethernet cable. Employing Ethernet cables between rooms or floors can be a significant challenge.
Wireless LAN and WAN:
In a wireless network, network adapter is used network to connect the computers. Data is transmitted using radio waves that eliminate the need for Ethernet cables. You can connect to the network from anywhere within range of the wireless router. Wireless networks provide high speed with some loss of security for greater flexibility and ease of use. Also wireless networks are easy to maintain as very less cabling is required.
Wired Networks Advantages:
- Ethernet cables, hubs and switches are very inexpensive.
- Some connection sharing software packages, like ICS, are free.
- Ethernet cables, hubs and switches are extremely reliable.
- Wired LANs offer superior performance.
- Broadband routers offer equivalent firewall capability built into the device, configurable through its own software.
- Wired connections can reach networking speeds of up to 1000 Mbps with Gigabit Ethernet networking equipment, necessary for bandwidth hungry.
Wired Networks Disadvantages:
- Need to run cables in difficult environments through walls, floors and ceilings.
- Cables need to be run from computer to computer and switch to switch. Process can be time consuming.
- Loose cables likely remain the single most common and annoying source of failure in a wired network.
Wireless Networks Advantages:
- The greater mobility of wireless LANs helps offset the performance disadvantage. Mobile computers do not need to be tied to an Ethernet cable and can roam freely within the WLAN range.
- It is relatively easy to set up a WAP and configure a WNIC using a wireless connection utility.
- Wireless networks have much less cabling which leads to a much neater working environment. You do not need to run cables across your house/office, which can create trip hazards across rooms, hallways and stairs. Also choosing to set-up a wireless network means that you do not need to run cables underneath carpets or drill holes through walls or ceilings to pass cables through.
Wireless Networks Disadvantages:
- Wireless networking signals are subject to a wide variety of interference, as well as complex propagation effects that are beyond the control of the network administrator.
- The speed on most wireless networks (typically 1-54 Mbps) is far slower than even the slowest common wired networks (100Mbps up to several Gbps).
