2.6 Planning a network-layout
At this point you are aware of the limitations of the different cabling systems, and you can provide
answers to the following questions with respect to the network that you have to implement:
Determination of network requirements
•
What is the extent of the coverage of the proposed network?
•
What is the optimum number of network segments required to satisfy the physical (space,
interference) conditions applicable to the proposed system?
•
How many network stations (PLC, IPC, PC, transceiver, possible bridges) should be
connected to the network?
•
What is the distance between the different stations on the network?
•
What is the expected increase in coverage and number of connections that the system must be
able to handle?
Drawing a plan of the network
Prepare a drawing of the plan of the network! Identify every item of hardware (like cables,
transceivers, amplifiers, termination resistors). Observe the rules and limitations that were outlined
in the previous chapters.
Measure the distance between all components to ensure that they are within the prescribed
parameters (min. distance, max. length...).
