ne-stop guide to designing and managing cost-effective,
reliable, and flexible corporate networks using the latest broadband
technologies, including: Frame Relay, Cell Relay, T1/T3/SONET, SMDS and
BISDN. This all-encompassing, no-nonsense handbook shows you the full
range of options available, summarizes the benefits of each, and delivers
the facts you need to successfully design the optimum network for your
organization.
Skillfully written by industry expert Daniel Minoli, author of the
best-selling Telecommunications Technology Handbook (Artech House, 1991),
this information-packed reference takes you beyond the hype surrounding
the profusion of available technologies to reveal strengths, uncover
hidden costs, indicate limits, and assess long-term value to your
corporate network. The book gives you a clear understanding of when, how,
and where to apply the latest technologies for optimum results in your
enterprise, and why.
This comprehensive survey provides a balanced mix of new and emerging
technologies, market trends, applications, and service providers, and
offers you an insiders assessment of the trends that are likely to
continue in each area, well into the 1990s.
*Enterprise Networking* brings you up to speed on the very latest industry
developments and provides extensive analysis of such hot topics as:
- Frame relay service
- Cell relay
- Switched Multimegabit Data Service and metropolitan area networks
- Switched T1 service
- Fractional T1 service
- T1 and T3 services, multiplexers, and networks
- Central office-based multiplexing services and their use for
disaster recovery applications
- Synchronous Optical Network fiber transmission systems
- Fiber Distributed Data Interface (fiber and twisted pair); Fiber
Distributed Data Interface II; Fiber Distributed Data Interface
Follow- On LAN; Gigabit LANs; and Gigabit networks
- Extension of high-speed, fiber-optic mainframe channels
- Integrated Services Digital Network offerings for corporate
network use, and evolving Broadband Integrated Services Digital
Network technology
- New fiber-optic loop technologies and opportunities
- Issues pertaining to corporate network management, including
disaster recovery and service continuity
Most of the available telecom references promise comprehensive treatment
of critical issues, yet merely breeze through the latest trends with
coverage that is superficial at best. This is not the case with Enterprise
Networking. Guaranteed to be the only book you'll need on broadband
technology, this massive work will not disappoint you. Its extensive
treatment of today's cutting-edge technologies includes approximately: 120
pages on T1, FT1, and switched T1 services; 150 pages on T1 equipment; 100
pages on T3 and SONET; 120 pages on Frame Relay; and 80 pages on Cell
Switching, SMDS and BISDN. The remainder of the text focuses on the
broadband environment and corporate networking.
Enterprise Networking includes 220 illustrations, and over 2,000
references to the most recent literature. With its end-user perspective
and total coverage of the available technologies, this is an absolute must
reference for telecommunications managers, data communications managers,
network managers, telephone company planners, and others responsible for
the success and effectiveness of their corporation's network. It is also
an ideal text for graduate students in courses on high-speed networking
and telecommunications.
