Networking Between Building
As part of the connection between building we also decided to upgrade their current 10/100 switching network with Gigabit. This would have a marked increase in communications between their local PC’s and the Server, ultimately giving a better experience to the users and in many ways improving productivity.
What we needed to do is upgrade the data switches so that they had interfaces for fibre, so we found switches that has the SFP Transceiver interfaces, and that would allow us to interface to the most appropriate physical fibre solution. We also wanted to ensure that some of the kit could provide Power over Ethernet (POE) as we looked to connect various Access Points (AP’s) and VoIP Phone without additional Power supplies.
Some of the kit we looked to use can be found here on Amazon:
The aim was to find kit that was of reasonable quality, as it was a small business, but not high end corporate kit, that would break most budgets.
All links take you to Amazon where, if you do buy the kit I earn a small referral fee, generally 3% or less for IT kit. If you found this information useful, please use the links, it helps pay the bills, and keeps the Blog posts coming! Thank you!
