BICSI CEC recognized*Summary
The enterprise network has evolved from a predictable physical configuration of multiple-data-drops-per-workstation, where connections were made inches above the floor, to a dynamic and often unconventional configuration in which many connections are made at the ceiling. And those connections typically require a supply of power as well as the transmission of data. Networks designed for yesterday’s office buildings may not meet the demands of today’s enterprise, and any network being designed today must provide the flexibility to accommodate future requirements while delighting current users. Accomplishing this commitment to current and future needs requires the evolution of technologies and of network-design techniques. This webcast seminar, produced by Cabling Installation & Maintenance and delivered by technical experts from CommScope, explores this evolution while providing practical how-to information for network planners, installers, and owners.The seminar describes the user needs and information-consumption habits that have resulted in network devices demanding high power levels as well as high-speed data throughput. It outlines technologies, products, and systems that have been developed to meet these dual needs. The seminar also discusses the advantages of using a distributed star topology, as opposed to a basic star topology, to build a network that is efficient on several levels.
