TELECOMMUNICATIONS TECHNOLOGY Telecommunication Technology Ryan M. Harmon IS535/ Telecommunications 29 November 2016 TELECOMMUNICATIONS TECHNOLOGY Telecommunication Technology Local Area Networks is a typical group of machines such as computers and are related to the prime services that use a common point of communication wing and the current wireless servers. Besides, LAN Comprises and engulfs the peripheral devices and the computers that usually get a connection to the server that is within a unique area geographically. For instance, the commercial and offices which are established by either individuals or the company. It is in such regions where the LAN plays a very vital role as it quickly helps in the connection of the people locally, therefore, making it easier for the quick access to the information that is to be shared in the family or within the company in a smaller location. Secondly, LAN is a sophisticated technology which employs various tactics in handling multiple occurrences in the whole technology. With LAN Switching in place, it does an excellent movement technology that helps the computer and the server to have a connection that yields an additional execution of the tasks and making its entirety movement to be easy. Typically, it is not always convenient for the large operations but more suitable for the small campus backbones. However, local area Network plays a very vital role by ensuring that it allows the users to make a connection on their computers to conventional servers. Typically, these are usually the central computers to the general network. These servers contain some data which are various types. The most dominant data that are in the computer are numbers, for instance, the accounting information, which various financial departments may wish to share within their department with different people in departmental decision making. Consequently, the Department can make a pool of exchange of stuff like the photos that marketing department may wish to dispose of people for them to establish the exact location, through the help of the local area network. And this takes place when one works on the marketing project in a company. TELECOMMUNICATIONS TECHNOLOGY Moreover, it is through this action of LAN which helps many organizations such as banking industries have employed the use this technology in business; they use the automated ATM which one can make the withdrawal of the cash from any point of the location irrespective of the geographical location. However, it makes the work to be so comfortable and convenient to the operators who use the internet enabled gadgets. Local Area Network gives that provision that gives a chance to everyone to work on the same document using the right programs which at least a bigger number can see and have access to at all cost, and able to access them in real time. Perhaps, the most compelling aspect of the central server with a stronger connection regarding internet, and this makes everyone who is entailed to the company can access the same information that is within the department of a company at their doorstep in the desk of the worker or even from home. Nowadays accessing LAN is very simple, one can see the signal from his/her phone. Therefore, it is possible for them to make its abundance availability on our phones. Mobile technology has brought a tremendous development in the communication sector. If today one would imagine that life could be the same today. With the wireless, technology has become a vital part of the world. Mobile technology has made the world to be viewed differently and in various sectors. For instances, Healthcare, wireless communication has brought a tremendous impact on the medical care in the remote areas which eventually as made the world to view mobile wireless to be the most effective regarding the transformation of the world. For instance, the United Nations Foundation which has adopted the use of technology in make equitably distributed health facilities in various parts of the world. The world concerning technology has the business communication to be enhanced. The interface has adopted the drastic and impact change in the world of business. And this has TELECOMMUNICATIONS TECHNOLOGY become more of advantageous to various states than any other organization. Mobile technology can typically improve the services that a firm offers to the customers. It is possible in a case where a secure access the customers regarding the management. However, it is usually easy to access your client's details via regular updates of their details. Lastly, on the advantages, very robust solutions may be found wherever office gets a direct link to the departmental office in which one works in even offline. And at any moment could do them remotely under the guideline of checking the prices and stock availability. Additionally, the vast adoption of cloud computing has brought positive impacts on the mobile devices by providing a technical solution to the problems over the internet. In everything which has merits, there must always be its limitations. There is a relatively high cost of the machines and the equipment which surround the mobile devices. However, such cost which is involved in handling the challenge becomes a puzzle. The mobile information Technology tools put valuable information at risks, whereby those relevant data are disclosed to the unauthorized users in case of unimproved measures is taken which makes the mobile devices against the subjection of such materials into risks.

Harmon IS535/ Telecommunications 8 November 2016 NETWORK CABLING In today's world internet is vital for daily task. It is very high in demand and which people will find often feel lost or discounted if they cannot access the internet. This enormous concept that every organization will have. Personally, I gone out to Lowes and inquired about networking cable and found myself in purchase the more expensive cable because of the rating on the wire, this you should never go cheap on especially if you need access to the internet all the time. When you are planning to set up an office, company or a building for networking, you have first created a goal and what is realistic for the company to achieve. Ensure that you have the right people to make the right decisions that are involved in these decisions because you want to do it right the first time. If you end up making the wrong choice this will cost you time and money in the long run, so it's highly important you make the right decision, whether it is expensive at first it will pay off in the long-term. As the Sunshine Health Corporation Company, they have to ensure they do all can do to ensure they provide reliable networking cabling. When the report comes in at after the inspection, it will be highly visible to their proper networking cable. The inspection report came back and stated that the building was the wire was the old cabling. Now the Corporation needs to find and contract a networking company to provide service. Of course, this would mean that the old wiring would have to replace because the legacy cable is slower than then the new cabling. Due to an older building the installation of Wi-Fi, might have some blockage areas that are cannot receive service. But also, considering when you connect to the cable the service will be faster and more secure than Wi-Fi. The cabling should be Category 6 cabling as that has a better rating than Category 5 cabling. As the CAT5 cable has a maximum rating of 1000MBits/second. As the rating for safety CAT6 cabling meets the criteria NETWORK CABLING and is rated higher in the safety aspect. Another reason for CAT6 cabling is because it transfers data at 10000MBits/second. The cabling for the future endeavors as CAT5 would be phased out. So, you might spend a little bit more for the CAT6 cabling but the at the end of the day it would be worth the investment. Something that is going to be required to install CAT6 cable is; cable tester, verification, qualification tester. Now when you look at the building, there will be old cabling with coaxial and telephone cabling that uses RJ11 connectors. With the upgrade of the CAT6 cable, you will be using the 8p*C (RJ45) connector. With a higher connect speed this change would also be an easy installation. Now when you have this in the communications hub room, it needs to be in perfect condition. You will need to have labeling on each cable and at least have two per section. You will need a centralization tray system, and on a raised platform. The labeling process needs to identify and reviewed by the Network Service orientation clearly. Another thing is that the room will also enable the voice and date in the office, and again it needs to be properly arranged. With the CAT6 cabling, it also needs to go along with the RJ45. With Wi-fi being the new thing to be mobile and always connected you would have to install it at each communication room. With that being said you would be able to communicate with the local cabling and signals can send and receive with from the surrounding computers. As the communication, the room would be in a local area. You will have place the scope of the wireless LAN, and it needs to state what the wireless would be able to satisfy including; the standards, system architecture, the access points, and the materials. The company should have placed this in for the bid to see if there were a couple of businesses willing to offer for and then they should have researched to find out who would be the better NETWORK CABLING company to hire. With all the requirements, they should have also conducted an in-depth study of development this action for Local Area Network. This would also include the contractor that would be installing the cable too. As we know now that wireless creates a more mobile environment, unlike the LAN cable that provides the faster connection. With their decisions, they can always opt in to have Wi-fi as well and have a multitype function business as well. With an open area and 20,000 square feet, it would be feasible to have Wi-fi. This would impact the common room along with the entire building. With the installation and complete set up would determine what would be more beneficial and cost efficient at the end. As business needs to operate, they would be successful by replacing the CAT5 for the CAT6. As we know that CAT6 is faster than then CAT5. With the upgrade of the phone to RJ45 would also be install that would bring up that to a higher speed as well. Looking at the expenses wiring would be about $8,000, $5,500 for the equipment, $1,895 for installation, $800 for testing would equal $16,195. Reference Corporation, F. (2006).

Harmon IS535/ Telecommunications 15 November 2016 ASSET RECOVERY As any company grows it will have to change and if it does it most likely will eventually be shut down. In today's world as computers are evolving all the time along with software and hardware so to become a reliable company, you will also need to up to date to stay with the growing world of today. As a tech, savvy guy myself I like to have the latest greatest gadgets but not being sucked into buying it every time it comes out. So, for companies they should invest in updating their equipment every so often with the latest. Now the question comes to mind in what do you do with that equipment; you will need to recycle that material does not just pile up and clutter up an area because then that just keeps piling up. Asset recovery will be efficient and show only ensure that it does not turn out to disaster again and which would be lost of money during this time. For Sunshine Health Company they will need to obtain a deposition of the equipment so they can have an effective way to undertake this task. With the systems that are outdated ensure they are left unplugged from any of the networks and ensure they are kept in a separate room. As these computers, can be utilized for storing or recording the company's data. As it ages, the computers will get slower, and it will not be able to keep up with the newer systems. If you think about and as old as myself, thinking to the days of dial up the internet connect and used to wait forever and if I were still using that same service I would be waiting a very extended period of time for the Google search page to appear. When things operate at a slow pace, it can very frustrating and through the storage of data. Which when these reaches it peaks whether it is to the data storage limit or outdated hardware this can cause issues for the tech and eventually the company will have to break down to buy new equipment. As the old computers are decommissioned now, they will have to think of what they may want to do with that equipment. Not just the machines can be placed as decommissioned, but the ASSET RECOVERY following can also follow along; voice devices, computer output microfilm, magnetic disks along with CDs. Not just thinking of computers as outdated equipment but you can also think of air conditioners in the communication's rooms, telecommunication equipment; land lines, answering machines, fax machines, and local area networks (LAN). Asset Recovery Management (ARM) has to be considered with several factors being considered. Sunshine Corps, needs to think about the spare parts that have been bought to maintain their equipment. As the parts, should not be part of the company's budget but rather to maintain and repair at an affordable price. With the installation and uninstallation of the equipment in all areas of the company should not be part of the budget either, for example, man hours, material, and operation cost. Sunshine Health Corporation should select the most advanced equipment that the company can purchase to help asset recovery with the quality of updated services. They would also have to consider the feedback from the people which it would increase the moral of the company's employees. For the equipment that would only go up in smoke should be fully torn apart and demolished. Deposition instructions would help the decommissioning process that the company has to consider and would also have to keep a log for that equipment as well. Along with the list, you would have to store the original price, the maintenance log of what that piece of equipment utilized during its cycle of life. Now a cost that the company has to aspect is the price to obtain for all the information during the deposition process. You would also think of acquiring the man hours, transportation costs, and storage cost. As any other serves contracting an asset recovery service would have to be a decision to hiring the right firm to complete this mission. Also in ASSET RECOVERY consideration to look at the service team is ensuring they have all the available equipment to conduct this process properly. Tools and equipment that can be used as a collection of the equipment and the storage facilities are also substantial. With safety in mind, you need to ensure that proper measures are in place to avoid and further damages in this process. Also, having properly trained people on the equipment would be a significant indicator of a good asset recovery service. This would be professional people who are safe and great enthusiasm to be able to carry out these strict guidelines during this collection process. As this equipment, can be stored in a warehouse awaiting further instructions. When is comes to decommissioned assets, you can also think about updating that equipment. Which in a case study you can increase the life from 5 to 15 years. For example Windows 7 or 8 they can upgrade to 8.1 or 10 which are faster than Windows 7 and 8. Windows 10 has a great multitasking feature compared to Windows 8. Which this process can be uninstallation the installing of windows 8 to be able to install Windows 10. With the company having the highly trained and qualified personnel will be tasked to upgrade process. Another job would be installing a new network cabling through the enterprise. As the company is to get rid of the CAT5 cable to CAT6 because like CAT5 only runs 1000 Bits/second CAT6 runs 10000Bits/second. Also, including the telephone cabling that would include the RJ45 connectors compared to the RJ11 connectors which are slower. As the RJ45 are easy to install and available. Another way of deposition is by donating the equipment as well. This would be another choice that Sunshine Health Corporation can select for this asset. Just by giving this computer it can be registry as a generous tax benefit and write-offs. The company will have selected the best organization which is also best if they choose a non-profit organization that would be most ASSET RECOVERY beneficial with the equipment. Before donating the computer Sunshine Health Corporation, they should ensure the material they give is in good condition which if not could lead to expense. This would also bring good will to the corporation as they give their equipment. I would say they can publicize their donation, but in my eyes, I would like always to be a silent gift. Another option in that Sunshine Health Corporation has to select from is salvaging and selling of the decommissioned equipment. Which for the telecommunications equipment; landlines, faxes and an answering machine can be sold for a low price? As the revenue can be utilized in any department. The money can be use as training more people, or particular commodities in like increasing their profit. This can also be a market to track in the highly trained people and utilized it for their salaries. Reference 118, V. H. (2016, May 4).

Harmon IS535/ Telecommunications 22 November 2016 IEEE SPECIFICATIONS AND STANDARDS A company that is out there to help develop standards and specifications for cabling is The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). Like any business, this has layers that it starts off with from the Ethernet to the wireless. 1997 was when they began to approve of these specifications and how they can be helpful in the communications arena. As this would be the start of a new era and would be cost efficient in investing in. As they create the standards of to a higher network speed along with a low interference rate. 802.11 was the name of the first standard but like some things the first thing is not always liked. This would only support a 2mbps system which was very slow. As 802.11a is a newer model of 802.11 which only applies to Local Area Networks (LANs). But with the newer model it supported up to 54mbps in the 5GHz band. Which it also utilized an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). This was the digital era that started off in the 1980's and had interference among channels near each other. It was transmitting data through the phone lines. With 802.11b around it was less expensive but it only supported 11mbps in the 2.4 GHz bandwidth. This used a Complementary Code Keying (CCK) which replaced the Barker Code in 1999. As 802.11g had only transmitted through 802.11g, it hands a faster rate compared to the (b). The reasoning why is because of the wireless network WIFI. With WLANs, it gives supported computers, telephones, and other communications equipment. As the (g) model had transmitted 54 megabits per second, along with using the OFDM compared to the 802.11b which utilized the CCK. Now with the 802.11n it had its eye on CCK, OFDM, and Direct Spread Sequence spectrum (DSSS) modulation. It had supported 1000mbps which were the minimum and could go up to 6000mbps which were way faster than 802.11g. IEEE SPECIFICATIONS AND STANDARDS As anything 802.11a had its advantages, as it utilized the 5GHz bandwidth and it was not as crowding to the multichannel. Now the 802.11b had only supported 11mbps which could provide 54mbps. Which is good when it is divided up into numerous channels. With 802.11a it can also be quite troubling as well. It can cost more than the others. As the devices, could not be supported like computers, and notebooks. As the lower of distance would be a given to the output power. As 802.11b is cheaper but it can be split up to support various applications. But if you like speed this would not be the one to get because it would only reach 11mbps. It would also crowd the lines, unlike 802.11a which mitigates these interferences. It was highly liked because it was affordable. With 802.11n it could provide 300mbps which was unlike the 802.11g as it would only support 54mbps. With this, it had supported three modulations for the digital connections which would be fasters speeds. This also gave you security and was reliable which was able to be used on 802.11a, b, and g. This would also allow you to increase your clients and over a further distance. But the distance would have to depend on some factors like the quality of material, the size of the object and movement along with the direction of the antenna. 802.11n would not have too many issues with the interference. This system was only 2.4GHz which was a risk of WIFI that was less compared to the (b) as it would have a better signal recovery. The (n) is also pricey, which is also changeling of an operation to 2.4 GHz, as it has three overlapping channels, and this would mean fewer clients. With all this, the Sunshine Health Corporation could consider and apply the technologies that would improve their communications system. As I believe that they should highly consider the 802.11a as this would be the best bang for the buck. It would be expensiveness to install, but in the long run, it would have paid for itself. Now they would have to consider the best company to IEEE SPECIFICATIONS AND STANDARDS install this equipment. The company willing to do so would have to have the latest equipment to be able to handle this task. With funds that are remaining, they should invest in the best applications. The company should listen to their employees and realize what they need along with the current technology. With proper training, so they can increase skill-based knowledge. With the 802.11a is reasonable because they connection speed was up to 54mbps to the 5GHz. It also was good in consideration of OFDM. But the downside of this is it is not compatible with other technologies, which can cause issues to its employees. Another idea is they could switch to the 802.11n. As this would be the latest technology but it would also be the most expensive along with being faster than the 802.11a. This provides from 300mbps, unlike the 54mbps. The security is also way better too. This is also the best reliable system as well. As they have considerations to think of they would have to believe in what invest is the best for them.
