Computer Networks are by far the most important aspect of any organisation today. The networks could be simple peer-to-peer networks or complex Wide Area Networks with VPNs. Through proper planning and installation, we ensure that every network built by us survives every computing request. We suggest, install and configure Local Area Networks, Wide Area Networks, VPNs etc.

Depending on the functionality, we suggest the Network OS. In cases where the demand from the network may not be very extensive and the customers require its flexibility, we suggest the very basic peer to peer networking without dedicated servers. We use networking products of popular brands like Cisco, D-Link and Lucent to build error-free networks.

Apart from simple cabling we setup Intranets/Extranets, VPNs and provide Internet/web based application access to every desktop with the network through appropriate Proxy Settings using Firewall as necessary.


What are the key basic components of a Network?:

The cabling, IO punching, RJ45 crimping and installation of IO boxes are some very basic but important aspect of networking. Proper planning to their placements are essential. So is the contact punching/crimping important as it determines the throughput of your network access!

NEVER compromise on the last mile connecivity as it invariably fails your network.

Routers OR Switches?:

A router is a more sophisticated network device than either a switch or a hub. While routers, hubs and switches all share similiar physical appearance, routers differ substantially in their inner workings. Routers can join multiple networks.

Having said that, a typical small office could use an effective managed/Unmanaged Switch alongwith a router for their connectivity. Deciding the appropriate component is highly dependant on the working environment needs.

Cascading switches and routers requires special planning for proper functioning.

Wireless Networks:

A wireless local area network (WLAN) links two or more devices using a wireless distribution method, and usually providing a connection through an access point to the wider internet. This gives users the mobility to move around within a local coverage area and still be connected to the network.

Wi-Fi: Wi-Fi is increasingly used as a synonym for 802.11 WLANs, although it is technically a certification of interoperability between 802.11 devices. Wi-Fi wireless routers incorporate a built-in access point that is roughly equivalent to a wired switch.

Fixed Wireless Data: This implements point to point links between computers or networks at two locations, often using dedicated microwave or laser beams over line of sight paths. It is often used in cities to connect networks in two or more buildings without physically wiring the buildings together.

Productivity Peripherals:

There are a lot of peripherals and accessories available today to make your networking decision an important choice for computing!

There are USB hubs (eg. Belkin's 4port USB hub) which offer USB connectivity across the network to commonly accessed peripherals like scanners and USB storage drives.

A sophisticated Storage drive that connects directly to your network can eliminate the need of setting up a dedicated storage server or even an FTP server!

Choosing your next peripheral purchase to be network-ready is very important to utilise the flexibility it offers.

Firewall:

A firewall is a part of a computer system or network that is designed to block unauthorized access while permitting authorised communications. It is a device or set of devices that is configured to permit or deny network transmissions based upon a set of rules and other criteria.

Firewalls can be implemented in either hardware or software, or a combination of both. Firewalls are frequently used to prevent unauthorized Internet users from accessing private networks connected to the Internet, especially intranets. All messages entering or leaving the intranet pass through the firewall, which inspects each message and blocks those that do not meet the specified security criteria.

Without a firewall, all computers on your network are directly accessible to anyone on the Internet.
With a firewall in place, you can implement security rules and thus prevent security goof-ups.

Why Network? :

For businesses, it goes without saying that if you are not networked, CALL US NOW!

For individuals: If you own two or more computing devices, it is an absolute must that you should get networked!

Sharing Files, printers, scanners, common resources on the network apart from Intenet access across all devices are a few extremely important tasks that are eased with networking.

The choice of networking wired/wireless is dependant on the cluster of devices you use and their applications to network.
