Frequently Asked Questions
Network design and installation involve the strategic planning, setup, and configuration of all network components – from physical cables, such as Ethernet cables and fibre optic cables, to active network devices like switches, routers, and access points. It's about creating a functional and reliable network that ensures all your connected devices communicate efficiently and securely, tailored to your specific business objectives.
Networking installation is the comprehensive process of physically implementing and configuring a computer network. This includes precise cable routing, termination, wall plate installation, assembling racks, mounting active equipment, and configuring the entire system to allow communication between connected devices. The goal is to establish seamless connectivity and optimal performance across your entire network infrastructure, whether it's a small local area network or a complex enterprise network.
The network installation process typically involves a site survey and design to determine needs and required bandwidth, followed by cable installation and termination, and then the setup of racks and proper cable management. Next is the installation of IT products, such as access points and switches, followed by thorough cable testing and certification, and the creation of detailed documentation for ongoing maintenance and network management.
While network installation can be classified in various ways, common types based on connection method include:
- Wired Networks: Utilizing physical cables such as Ethernet cable for data transmission.
- Wireless Networks: Relying on radio waves and access points (like a Wi-Fi system) for connectivity, often forming complex Wi-Fi networks.
- Hybrid Networks: A combination of both wired networks and wireless networks to leverage the strengths of each, often incorporating fibre optics for high-speed backbones and Wi-Fi for mobile flexibility. Our network design and installation can adapt to any network topology, including star topology and mesh topology.
Fibre optic cables are installed by carefully pulling them through conduits or cable trays. Unlike copper, they are delicate and require specialized tools and highly trained technicians for precise termination. After installation, they undergo rigorous testing to ensure light signals travel without loss, verifying data transmission integrity and optimal performance for your network infrastructure.
While fibre optics offers superior speed, bandwidth, and resistance to interference, its main downsides can include a higher initial network installation cost and the need for specialized equipment and skilled personnel for proper handling, installation, and termination. However, for applications demanding high data rates or long-distance transmissions, these are often outweighed by the significant performance benefits.
