Commercial and Residential Long Island Computer Networking Services

Computer Networking

There are many different types of computer networking for your home or office computers. For starters, you have the option of going with wired or wireless networking. These types of networks tend to differ as wired offers copper or fiber optic cable running between computers while wireless networks utilize radio waves or microwaves in order to maintain communication between channels. If you need further assistance in choosing network; contact the experts at our wiring company.

Client/Server Network

A client/server network works by using client devices and normally PCs with network software applications that are installed which demand and also receive information over the network. The server device will store files and databases that include intricate applications such as websites.

Area Networks

In addition to basic networks; there are also other types of area networks. They are normally categorized by their scale. Some of the more popular network types include the following:

  • LAN
  • WAN
  • WLAN
  • MAN
  • CAN
  • Storage Area Network
  • System Area Network

LAN

Networks used to interconnect computers in Long Island homes or buildings on one site are often referred to as Local Area Networks. The LAN transmits data with a speed of quite a few megabytes per second (106 bits per second).

WAN

The advantages of WAN are overwhelming. Wide Area Network as it is often referred to be used to exchange traffic between different buildings, cities or even countries. WAN is essentially a larger version of a LAN and offers the following benefits:

  • Covers a large geographical area
  • Shares software and resources with interconnecting workstations
  • Messages can be sent very quickly

WLAN

Wireless Local Area Network is also known as WLAN. It utilizes free space as a communication channel as opposed to using conventional wires or cables. With WLAN; a network of computers can be constructed to be created the same in a simple network instead of using cables or wires for multiple computer connections.

MAN

A larger network which extends to either a city or larger institution is what is known as a Metropolitan Area Network (MAN). The advantages of MAN are that it provides a good back structure for a larger network. It also provides easier access to WANs.
