CLICK TO LEARN THE 6 PRINCIPLES OF THE MODERN LAN
PRINCIPLE #4
Modernize to IP using proven and reliable environmentally responsible frameworks, such as IoTG and LEED. Wherever possible, re-use and re-purpose existing endpoint cabling infrastructure; using energy efficient PoE switches to reduce IDF closets requirements and e-waste.
PRINCIPLE #5
Construct physically separate but functionally integrated IP network paths for different and dedicated applications, ensuring mission-critical platforms are future proofed and not impacted by disruptions or intrusions of the primary business network.
PRINCIPLE #6
Expand sustainable ROI by reallocating resources gained from efficient infrastructure design into enhancing communication and business enabled processes.
PRINCIPLE #1
Start with the “Things” of the Internet of Things (IoT). Identify the characteristics of each unique physical device. Determine topology and infrastructure by incorporating each endpoint’s power, bandwidth, and application requirements.
PRINCIPLE #2
Create a secure and robust local area network that is easy to configure, deploy, manage, and troubleshoot. Ensure convergence flexibility by allowing for separate, on-premise or Cloud-based unification; simplifying LAN management and minimizing core network breach risk.
PRINCIPLE #3
Maximize efficiencies by utilizing all technological advancements, including new long reach PoE switch innovations, to accelerate modernization, eliminate disruption, reduce network complexity, and minimize implementation costs.
