Today,
Tampa, FL offices cannot function at optimal level without the help of
an internet network. Simply, the internet just makes things a lot easier
for a company. Every company knows the importance of the internet. The
better question is, what type of internet networking is better for an
office setup?
Companies get to choose
between a wireless or wired network to install. Over the past years,
wireless technology has captivated the world but is it really the best
option for an office setup? Is the speed of wireless networking catching
up with wired networks?
Wireless
networking sure does offer more flexibility and convenience to
employees. But will a company prioritize this over internet reliability
and dependability? Let’s evaluate some factors to consider here:
- Speed
When
talking about speed, wireless networks may never match the speed of
wired networks. And we all know how important having a speedy internet
connection is at the office. Wireless networks can go up to 300mbps but
that’s a boost speed. Rarely do users enjoy this speed when using a
wireless connection.
But
with a wired network, speed can even go as high as gigabytes. And since
there are no speed fluctuations, the connection remains consistent.
This cannot be said true of wireless connections where signal drops and
interference are a usual complaint.
- Dependability
Wireless
networks, as previously mentioned, are prone to signal drops and
interference, which can really affect a connection’s reliability and
dependability. When signals are lost, employees cannot use the internet
properly. Even the slowing down of the internet connection is a big
inconvenience already.
But
with wired networks where physical cables are used, signal interference
is less likely to happen. These physical cables allow the speedy
connection and internet performance to remain consistent. In networking,
you can always put your trust on cables.
- Security Issues
A
big problem with wireless networking is security issues. Basically,
with data transferred through the air, it can be easily intercepted.
Although enabling an encryption should help the connection become more
secure, hackers can still breach through.
On
the other hand, a wired network is more protected from security
threats. Only someone who will tamper with the physical infrastructure
can pose a security threat to the network.
So,
when choosing an internet network for your office, don’t just think
about what’s “hot” or “popular” today, look into these three factors
instead. Your office internet network must be fast, reliable and secure.
