Plan an effective IT infrastructure based on the needs of an organization.

Instructions:

1. Compare and contrast at least five technologies that are readily available for in-home internet access. You should
consider practical as well as technical differences in your comparison. Do not include Frame Relay or ATM as
these are primarily larger scale business solutions.

2. Explain the similarities and differences between Frame Relay and Asynchronous Transfer Mode.

3. Technological advances are only one of many factors that play into how technology infrastructure develops. The
social decision to break-up AT&T had a significant impact on the telephone infrastructure. Describe how the
infrastructure changed due to this event.
