You have been asked to design the entire cabling system for a medical instrument manufacturer’s new warehouse. The company already has three buildings, each .5 miles apart, and the warehouse, 2 miles away, will be its fourth building. Currently, the buildings run on separate networks, but the company would like to be able to exchange data among them. For example, the Quality Control Department in building 1 would like to be able to access servers in the Research Department in building 2. In addition, the Sales Department in building 3 wants to conduct video training sessions for its representatives in the field via the Internet. In the warehouse, 50 shipping and packing personnel in the Fulfillment Department will be riding up and down the aisles on forklifts pulling inventory off the shelves on a daily basis. What kind of transmission media would you recommend for each different building and department of the medical instrument company and why? What type of media would you recommend using to connect the buildings and why? Finally, what kind of media should the company request from its ISP for connecting the corporate WAN to the Internet?
