ACer assessing the current telecommunica0ons protocol, standards and collabora0on tools
used for Interna0onal Plas0cs, there seems to be a need of update and upgrade of various IT
infrastructure that will provide for beDer network performance, increase security and speed.
Increasing corpora0on connec0on from T2 to an OC-3 will help in expanding the VoIP
func0onality. The network should be faster, more reliable and has rooms for future
improvements. As described in the network diagram of Interna0onal Plas0cs Inc, Albany and
Pon0ac are not running on a fast ethernet network. Thus, installa0on of 100Base T in Albany
and Pon0ac and upgrade of 100Base T to a 1000Base T backbone in Corporate and China HQs
will beneEt from improved speed and stability from loss of data. The upgrade of cables that are
compa0ble and has higher level of frequency support will improve reliability and speed. The
severs currently being used are mostly outdated and needs to be updated which will open
doors to new features, op0mize performance and patch security >aws.
The recommenda0ons will provide an eFect on increasing network security, stability and speed
that will have adverse impact on business. It will allow the company to be more eGcient and
increase proEts and produc0vity. Increase in security will ensure the data and informa0on to be
secured.
