Scenario: As an IT networking trainee for your organization, your supervisor has given you an assignment to review and evaluate ways for improving the network at the Mayberry Satellite Campus. Your task, as detailed below, includes reviewing the existing network cabling and providing a recommendation to improve the speed of the network.

Use the Microsoft® Word template file (provided) that includes the table with column headings of Current Cabling, Solution 1, and Solution 2, and row headings of Cabling Types, Speed of Cables, and Main Function of Cables. In the table, indicate the specifications of two possible hard-wired solutions that would improve the speed of the network. 

In preparation for Week Two and located after the table, include a 1/2- to 1-page explanation that identifies how a wireless solution with wireless access points could also improve the speed of the network. Reference and cite, in APA format, at least one valid Internet source. Preview Ch. 4, "Wireless Networking," in Networking Essentials to complete this task.
