  • Page 88: Basic Wireless Considerations

    Basic wireless Wireless networks are easy to install because you do not have to run any cables. Instead, a wireless base station is connected to the considerations terminal Ethernet port. Wireless NICs are installed in each computer you want on the network. These components are available at most computer supply stores and outlets.

  • Page 89: Basic Ethernet Considerations

    Basic Ethernet Ethernet hubs, cables, and NICs can be purchased at most computer supply stores or outlets. They are relatively inexpensive considerations and easy to install. The Ethernet interface must support auto-negotiate, a feature that enables compatibility and inter-operability among Ethernet devices. Select an Ethernet hub based on how many computers or other devices are connected to the network, and how fast you need the data connection to be.
  • Page 90 Remember that prepared Ethernet cable, cable that already has RJ-45 jacks installed at the ends, are usually available in lengths of no more than 50 feet. If the cable length exceeds 50 feet, use a kit to install the RG-45 jacks at both ends of the cable. (This is called terminating the cable.) The kits are available at some electronic supply or home supply stores.
