Structured wiring has become a popular term in today's communications wiring market, and it is being loosely applied to many different building-wiring configurations. In its most basic sense, the term can be used to describe any wiring system designed and installed according to a fixed set of rules. An "open wiring system", on the other hand, is a structured wiring system designed to be both application and vendor independent.

The concept of an open wiring system has been standardized by the EIA/ TIA-568 Commercial Building Telecommunications Wiring Standard. EIA/ TIA-568 provides basic guidelines for the specification of an open wiring system, standardizing on cable types, user connection interfaces and a star wired topology.

Let us help you define the right premise cable solution for your business network.

Wireless networks

Installing a wireless local area network (WLAN) is surprisingly simple. Securing the WLAN and its connection to an existing Ethernet network is the subtle problem area. Using a mild variation of our established Linux firewall configuration O-Tech can protect both the WLAN and the cabled network, including high encryption of the wireless information.

Virtual Private Networking (VPNs)

VPNs are ideal for businesses that need to connect any number of offices or remote employees, in any location, together. Using the Internet to provide cost effective data communications and a firewall to ensure maximum security O-Tech can setup a VPN that will provide greater flexibility to your business.
