We ensure that all cabling is concealed so that you won't excite the Health and Safety Officer or spoil the office decor. In addition, we take particular care to 'future proof' our networks as far as we can so that you are able to upgrade at any time to keep pace with your growth. And of course, on-going support is available via the telephone and site visits from our Microsoft qualified network engineers. A network is a group of computers, printers, and other devices that are connected together with cables. Each computer, printer, or other peripheral device that is connected to the network is called a node.
Networks can have tens, thousands, or even millions of nodes.
Like most things, networks are are assembled according to certain rules. Cabling, for example, has to be a certain length, each cabling strand can only support a certain amount of network traffic, etc. The rules that govern how a network is set up is called its topology. The most popular topology in use today is called Ethernet, which consists of computers and peripherals cabled together in specific ways. Ethernet is relatively inexpensive, easy to set up and use, and very, very fast.
