1. Explain why Wireless is Necessary for this Business.

A wireless network is necessary for this organization because of the lateral position of the data center. A wired network would be appropriate if the data center had been located in a center position. A wired connection is also the most appropriate for the star or ring network topology which is not the case in the building represented in the blue prints. Hence the most appropriate network would be wireless due to the lack of centrality of the data/server network.

2. Explain the Major Features of the Floor Plan.

The floor plan has narrow open spaces which may serve as pathways. The Majority of the space is occupied by rooms and chambers such as the lounge, the conference room and the food court. The largest space is occupied by the lounge room while the smallest is occupied by the record keep

3. Identify areas that may present issues during the construction of the network.

The major barriers of a wireless network construction are the physical barriers. The wireless networks need a large amount of open space and the building, according to the blueprints, is characterized with many walls hence the number of walls would be a barrier in constructing the wireless networks.

4. Why will these areas Present Issues?

These walls will cause the interference of wireless waves hence reducing strength of the wireless signal. For example, people in the food court/kitchen will experience a much poor signal strength when compared to people in the Lounge.

5. What can be done to Overcome the Issues in each Area?

The number of walls and barriers be reduced by making the rooms and pathways to be much larger. This reduces the amount of wave interference hence excellent results with the wireless network.
