A robust and fast network is crucial for an organization that can’t afford interruptions. To help keep your network running smoothly, you need networking products and equipment that doesn’t let you — or your business — down.

Modems

One of the most essential pieces of equipment for any network is a modem. This device is one of the major determining factors in network speed and many other specifications. For gaming, a powerful modem is required to stay competitive and supply a consistent and fast connection. In the professional space, modems need to be consistent in speed and reliability in order to provide your customers with the best experience possible. You can shop a wide range of modems for home or work at CDW today. 

Network Adapters

While most computers have some way to connect to a network, it’s not always the case. Network adapters are used to provide new ways for machines to connect to networks and other devices. Internal adapters can add ports or antennas to desktops and are capable of rapid speeds for tasks such as gaming or software hosting. External adapters are an affordable and easy way to add connectivity options to laptops or any device. Shop a wide range of wired and wireless network adapters at CDW today. 

Network Antennas

When an office takes up an entire building or spans multiple floors, a single access point may not be enough. Adding new access points to a network can be expensive and time-consuming. Network antennas are an excellent solution that extends the range of a network without the need for costly, dedicated equipment. In some cases, distances may be too large for just an antenna, but often these devices are a great first step for increasing the reach of your network. 

Network Management

Even the most sophisticated pieces of network equipment still need to be properly managed by other devices or individuals. Network management devices and services available at CDW are perfect for businesses of any size. With the help of CDW, you can rest assured that your network is in good hands, so you can focus on the most critical aspects of your business.

Network Security

At home and in the office, network security is more important than ever before. Online threats are everywhere, and devices such as firewalls, security tokens, or VPNs can protect your network and valuable information. Speak with the team at CDW today to learn more about network security and potential devices that could better secure your home or office. 

Routers

Just like modems, routers are one of the most important parts of any modern network. Routers allow you and other users to connect to your network wired or wirelessly. Some hybrid devices exist that can perform the duties of modems and routers, but often a dedicated device is needed. Shop a wide range of routers and other network equipment at CDW today.

Security Cameras & Surveillance

When managing a physical office, security is a significant part of any network infrastructure. Security cameras and surveillance equipment can be on an internal closed network or accessible via the internet with specific login credentials. Other security tools such as proximity cards or fingerprint readers can add a level of protection to physical offices or restricted locations. Speak with an expert at CDW today to learn more about security cameras and the best surveillance practices for your business. 

Switches

When it comes to connecting devices to your network, few pieces of equipment are as important as a network switch. LAN switches help to add devices within a network and help boost efficiency by not relying on an internet connection for communication. Fiber channel switches are capable of incredible speeds and can easily transfer data between various servers or devices. Speak with the experts at CDW today to learn more about their wide selection of network switches.

Wireless Access Points

Wireless access points or WAPs are the most important tool for providing users with access to your network. Devices can be mounted on walls or in ceilings, and a single access point can help increase the range of your network drastically. An interlocked system of many WAPs can even provide an entire building with a speedy and reliable connection.
