Let’s get to it with considerations and planning! INITIAL CONSIDERATIONS AND PLANNING FOR HOME NETWORK CABLING INSTALLATION Once you have decided to choose a wired network for your home, there are certain aspects that need to consider before calling the engineer for the set-up. DECIDE THE AREA/ROOM TO INSTALL THE WIRED NETWORKING: Choose the room or rooms you want to get wired. Consider the position of TV and gaming console while finalizing the area for installing the internet and spreading the connection in a different part of the home so that you don’t have to call network engineer time and again. HOW MANY PORTS DO I WANT AT EACH LOCATION? Consider the number of equipment that may use the internet connection and decide the number of ports you wish to have in each location. It is suggested to have at least one spare port at each location to meet the future demand. If the home is multi-storeyed then it becomes more crucial to deciding the number of ports at each location wisely. WHAT IS A GOOD LOCATION FOR DISTRIBUTION? Ask the engineer to choose the suitable location for the distribution of the internet connection so that it can be spread over to another location without creating a web of wires WHAT ENTRY POINT SHOULD THE CABLES TAKE? If you live in an apartment, then attic can be the right entry point for the cable path. For a single floor, the home basement can be the right location. Consider the cable length. The cable length for gigabit speeds over copper UTP cabling is of 100 meters. While selecting the cable path to consider its length and choose the path accordingly. WHAT NETWORK SPEED DO I NEED? The network speed depends on the switch you use. If the purpose of the internet connection is surfing then 10megabit switch will be the right choice. They are cheap in price and you can even get them for free. If the purpose of the internet connection is file sharing or multimedia sharing over the internet then 100mbps speed would be sufficient and for that 100 megabit switch are the right choice. For those who wish to avail fastest speed should opt Cat-6. Though, Cat 6 preferred by the organizations that require a faster internet connection.
