Do you have multiple offices that you need to connect?  Here is a short list of CTC's qualifications that can be beneficial to your organization:

 
bulletTCP/IP
bulletRouters
bulletFrame Relay
bulletT1
bulletDedicated Point to Point Circuits
bulletFirewalls
bulletVPN
bulletThin Client
bulletBroadband (DSL and Cable)
bulletWireless (Satellite)

 

There are of course some things that have to be done by the local Telco, but CTC has the contacts and experience to be the liaison that you need to have on your side.

 

 

CTC will perform a complete survey of your site including:

 
bulletWAN bandwidth requirements
bulletQuantity and types of servers at each location
bulletQuantity and types of workstations at each location
bulletAny special equipment (VPN or firewall device)

 

We will then provide you with a quote and a thorough network diagram.  No other technology company in SW Florida provides you with more planning.

      WAN Cost
  With the availability of DSL and other broadband technologies being so good, it is more affordable than ever to connect your offices or even create a connection from your house to the office so you can work from home.  Most people setup WAN connections between their offices to share information or to keep data consistent between multiple locations.

 

      Connection Speed
  A lot of people don't understand when they set up a WAN connection that the speed is only a fraction of what they are used to on their LAN.  For example, one of the best WAN links you can get is a T1 line and it has a potential bandwidth of 1.54 Mbps.  Compare that to your LAN bandwidth which is either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps.  One way to improve the "perceived" performance is to use a "Thin Client Solution" such as Citrix.
