What are Local Area Networks?
A local area network (LAN) is a network infrastructure that connects computers, devices, and resources within a limited geographical area, such as an office building, campus or home. LANs are essential because they facilitate seamless and efficient communication and resource sharing among connected devices. They enable users to access shared files, printers, and other resources, streamlining collaboration and boosting workplace productivity. LANs also play a vital role in providing internet connectivity to all connected devices, ensuring seamless access to online resources and applications.
Additionally, LANs offer improved data security and control, as administrators can centrally manage and monitor network access, ensuring data confidentiality and integrity. By serving as the foundation for internal communication and resource sharing, LANs enable organisations and individuals to operate efficiently and effectively in the modern digital age.
Local Area Network Features and Benefits
Multi-Layer Switching
Multi-layer switching enables data processing at the OSI model’s Layer 2 (Data Link) and Layer 3 (Network), facilitating faster and more intelligent data forwarding.
Multi-Gigabit Technology
Cisco switches with multi-gigabit and PoE+ capabilities support higher data rates (up to 400Gbps) over traditional Ethernet connections, enabling faster and more efficient transmission.
Zero-Touch Deployment
Cisco Meraki’s zero-touch deployment streamlines your LAN deployment, reducing deployment time and effort while ensuring consistent configurations and scalability for network expansion.
