Installation Cost Approximate
23Ghz Microwave
6Mbps at 50Kms
1000000 ksh
Intrabuilding Infrared
10Mbps
34000 ksh
The media to be used will be wired media so as to cater for the huge demands of the company and also because of its advantages over wireless media.
Available connectors
1. Rj-45
2. Rj-11
3. Straight tip connector
4. Ferrule connector
5. Lucent connector.
Cabling and installation Cost
Office one
Server – 55,000 Ksh
Wireless Router – 8,000 Ksh
Switch –12,000 Ksh
Cat 5e cable – (305 meter) = 7500Ksh
RJ 45 connectors – 100 *14 = 1400ksh
Cabinet – 15,000Ksh
Wall Jacks – 25 Kshs each (25*7) = 175Ksh (both 7 offices)
Expert personnel to set up the network = 10,000Ksh
Total = 109,075 Ksh for one office.
The same costs will apply also in the other offices.
Total cost for Four offices = 436,300 Ksh
Data Transfer Rates
Available data transfer rates as per the cables.
Cable
Maximum data rate speed
Cat 5
100 mbps
Single Mode Fiber cable
10Gbps
Recommendations
