What kind of transmission media would you recommend for each different building and department of the medical instrument company and why? I would recommend unbounded transmission media for building 1 and 2 because they would be sharing only data files and accessing servers on the network. It is more flexible and less expensive if they use wireless a network than a wire network. However, for building number 3, I would recommend to use bound transmission media because people on this building would be sharing files that contain videos. As we know sharing videos require a lot of data bandwidth; therefore, bounded transmission media is the best transmission media that we can use for the network on this building. For building number 4, I would recommend wire transmission media too. As they mention on the book, in building four, 50 shipping and packing will be riding up and down every day. This building needs a lot of bandwidth because it will be transmitting a lot of data.

What type of media would you recommend using to connect the buildings and why? I would recommend using a bounded connection to connect these buildings. Even though two of these building would be using wireless networks, some of the data that will be shared by these building require a lot of bandwidth. It’s better if we use a wire network to connect these buildings. Also, the distance between building four and the other buildings might cause problems if we used a wireless network.

What kind of media should the company request from its ISP for connecting the corporate WAN to the Internet? Public IP Block, this block could be in the form of /29, /28, or /27 network; depending on which plan or subnet you choose to have. Moreover, you would need a router that connects to your ISP.
