Network
Our network team is responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining our company’s network infrastructure.
Networks are everywhere. They connect our devices to the internet, our computers to each other, and our businesses to their customers. Networks are essential for communication, collaboration, and commerce.
There are many different types of networks, but they all share some basic characteristics. A network is made up of two or more devices that are connected together. These devices can be anything from computers and smartphones to servers and printers. Networks can be wired or wireless, and they can be local or global.
Local Area Networks (LANs) are networks that are limited to a small geographic area, such as a home or office. Wide Area Networks (WANs) are networks that cover a large geographic area, such as a city or country. The internet is the largest WAN in the world.
What are the uses of networking?
Networks are used for a variety of purposes, including:
Networks allow people to communicate with each other using email, instant messaging, and video conferencing.
Networks allow people to work together on projects, share files, and access common resources.
Businesses use networks to sell products and services online, to communicate with customers, and to manage their supply chains.
Our Network Products
Network Components
Networks are made up of a variety of components, including:
- Devices: The devices that are connected to a network are called nodes. Nodes can be computers, smartphones, servers, printers, and other devices.
- Media: The media that connects the nodes in a network is called the transmission medium. The transmission medium can be a copper wire, a fiber optic cable, or the air.
- Network devices: Network devices are used to connect nodes and to manage traffic on the network. Network devices include routers, switches, and hubs.
Network Protocols
Network protocols are rules that govern how devices on a network communicate with each other. There are many different network protocols, but some of the most common include:
- TCP/IP: The Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is the suite of protocols that is used for communication on the internet.
- Ethernet: Ethernet is a networking technology that is used to connect devices on a LAN.
- Wi-Fi: Wi-Fi is a wireless networking technology that is used to connect devices to the internet.
Network Security
Network security is important for protecting networks from unauthorized access and malicious attacks. Network security measures include firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and encryption.
