Emergence of High-Speed LANs
Personal
computers and microcomputer workstations
have become an essential tool for office workers
Explosive growth

the recognized as a

of the LAN essential

platform
More data is transported off premises and into the wide area
Digital Electronics
The rapid conversion of consumer electronics
to digital technology is having an impact on
both the Internet and corporate intranets
Image and video traffic carried by networks is
dramatically increasing
• Because of their huge storage capacity digital versatile
disks (DVDs) are being incorporated into Web sites
• Digital camcorders have made it easier to make digital
video files to be placed on corporate and Internet Web
sites
Convergence
The merger of previously Layers:
distinct telephony and
information technologies and
markets Applications
Involves:
Enterprise services
These are seen
by the end users Infrastructure
• Moving voice into a data Services the
infrastructure information Communication
• Integrating all the voice and network supplies links available to
to support the enterprise

organization into a single data
network infrastructure
• Then extending that into the
wireless arena

Internet Protocol (IP)

Networks
Itis estimated that by 2016 there will be
over 20 billion fixed and mobile networked
devices
This affects traffic volume in a number of ways:
• It enables a user to be continuously consuming
network capacity
• Capacity can be consumed on multiple devices
simultaneously
• Different broadband devices enable different
applications which may have greater traffic
generation capability
Networking
Advances in technology have led to greatly
increased capacity and the concept of
integration, allowing equipment and
networks to work simultaneously
