Network Design and Implementation

The goal of our team is to provide a better network and server infrastructure, which will enable people and applications to work optimally. To achieve this, our team will be implementing a new secure, fully-managed network infrastructure that is sufficiently reliable, flexible and cost-effective to meet both current demands, and provide the platform and capacity for future growth as well.

Technical Design

The design team analyzed the current network and traffic flows, and met with major business units in order to identify specific business constraints, requirements and planned future activities. The outcome of the design phase is a detailed new network design.

Technology

Users on the new network will experience enhanced performance and throughput (speed of data transfer), as the network will be ‘fully switched’. This means that your computer, printer and other network devices will now connect directly at 100Mbps, and no longer be slowed down by connecting through a network hub. The network infrastructure will also be centrally managed, which will simplify the configuration, administration, monitoring and troubleshooting of the network. The result of this will be proactive planning and maximized network security – which will increase the overall network availability and improve the accuracy and efficiency of operational and support staff.
