Nowadays, Communication network is more and more important for the enterprises. No matter how many employee the enterprise has, a suitable network is necessary.

So, how do we build a right network according to our scale of business?

If you have a small, medium or large business, what is the best solution to build up your network?

Don’t worry. Here we can tell you five useful network deployment solutions with Cisco devices.

Small Networks

Solution 1

A private small business would range Two to Twenty PCs scale in a single office. It is an easy network that Cisco would provide a cheap but stable Router and a 24 ports Switch (you can replace it by a 48 ports one, of course). It’s also easy to configure.

So, you can use RJ45 cable to connect CISCO1921-SEC/K9 and WS-C2960+24TC-L.

CISCO1921-SEC/K9 is the Cisco 1900 Series router and it offers security bundle, which helps to protect your data.

WS-C2960+24TC-L is a fast Ethernet switch that supports 24 x 10/100 ports and 2 x T/SFPZ uplinks.

Solution 2

It is designed for someone who has a harsher environment to keep the network stable and safe. Adding an ASA to your network would provide a more powerful function of safety to meet your need.

So, you can use RJ45 cable to connect ASA5506-K9, CISCO1941/K9 and WS-C2960X-48TS-L.

Medium Networks

Solution 3

About 100 clients may distribute at several offices that a Distribution Layer Switch added to your network responsible for forwarding can make things clear. Adding SFP (fiber) module also makes your network faster and unimpeded.

So, this solution includes CISCO1941-SEC/K9, WS-C3650–24TS-L, WS-C2960X-48TS-L, EHWIC-1GE-SFP-CU, GLC, Fiber Patch and RJ45 CABLE.

CISCO1941-SEC/K9 needs to install EHWIC-1GE-SFP-CU to get one 10/100/1000 Base-T port and one dual mode SFP port.

Beside, GLC and Fiber Patch are necessary, which make the router possible to connect the switch through SFP port.

Solution 4

You have important business that you need powerful Firewall and IP Phones or other video devices working?

So, you can select ASA5515-K9, CISCO2951-V/K9, VWIC3–1MFT-T1/E1, WS-C3850–24T-L, C3850-NM-4–1G, WS-C2960X-48TS-L, WS-C2960+24PC-L, GLC, CP-7841-K9, RJ45 CABLE and Fiber Patch.

CISCO2951-V/K9 is a Cisco 2951 router with Voice Bundle, PVDM3–32 and UC License PAK. This bundle is important because you should use it to deploy a Cisco Unified Communication Network. VWIC3–1MFT-T1/E1 must install in this router.

C3850-NM-4–1G is a network module for WS-C3850–24T-L, that makes the switch connect with other devices.

Besides, a POE switch, WS-C2960+24PC-L, makes it possible to connect the IP Phone because CP-7841-K9 doesn’t support power supply. It must be powered by POE switches.

Medium to Large Networks

Solution 5

A large, stable, safe, fast and multifunction network is shown here. Double-Bones construction ensures your business working no matter what accident happened.

This solution includes ASA5525-K9, CISCO3945-V/K9, VWIC3–1MFT-T1/E1, WS-C3850–12S-S, C3850-NM-4–1G, WS-C2960X-48FPS-L, WS-C2960X-48TS-L, GLC, CP-7841-K9, RJ45 CABLE and Fiber Patch.

The modules, cards and GLCs are like solution 4, installed in the routers and switches. Especially, the WS-C3850–12S-S offers 12 SFP ports so that it needn’t GLC.
