Definitions

Bandwidth – Describes the maximum data transfer rate

  • f a network or Internet connection. It measures how

much data can be sent over a specific connection in a given amount of time. Internet bandwidth is not LAN bandwidth, and vice versa. Measured in MHz. Speed – Measured in mbps which stands for megabits per second is also called Bandwidth. See above.

Definitions

Dedicated vs Shared networks - In computer networks and telecommunications, a dedicated line is a communications connection or other hardware resource dedicated to a certain application or use. Dedicated Internet Access - means that the specified amount of bandwidth sold has been carved out and dedicated for your use. In the case of national cable and phone companies DSL and Cable Internet is merely a “best effort” service.

Definitions

Latency – The time, typically measured in milliseconds (ms) that it takes a bit or byte of data to reach the destination from where it initiated from. This is characteristically the processing time that is introduced via the network equipment sending and receiving the data. Streaming – a technique of transmitting or receiving data (especially video and audio material) over a computer network as a steady, continuous flow, allowing playback to proceed while subsequent data is being received. Webcasting – the broadcasting of an event (pre-recorded

  • r live) over a network.

Definitions

Interference Sources – sources which operate in the wireless spectrum of 2.4GHz or 5.2GHz which affect wireless transmission ability. Example of sources of 2.4GHz interference are Microwave ovens, Bluetooth devices, Gaming consoles, Cordless Phones and 2.4GHz Digital Audio. Each of these when operated can make Wireless Networks temporarily unavailable as they utilize the same spectrum. Cloud computing - the delivery of hosted services over the internet. Ex. Office 365, Microsoft OneDrive, Google Drive and Facebook.

Planning for your internet

Demographic groups such as young adults, college graduates and those from high-income households – internet usage is near ubiquitous. Even so, adoption gaps remain based on factors such as age, income, education and community type. Business Sectors such as Aerospace, Medical, Telecom and some public events require massive data transfer rates.

Planning for your internet

Roaming - events with high roaming have an undesirable impact on networks. Reason – for every device to roam, the original access point must forward that client to the next access point and sometimes re-

  • authenticate. This can take up to 3 seconds per device

to reconnect. Now imagine hundreds to thousands of devices roaming. Applications – Web browsing, Email, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter each have their

  • wn network requirements.

Questions to ask your venue

How much internet access do I have for my event and is it dedicated or shared? How many concurrent devices was your network designed for?

slide-18
SLIDE 18

Questions to ask your venue

What was the largest event ever supported and was it successful? May I have a post event traffic analysis report?

Calculating your networking needs

Standard User Email, simple browsing, simple social media Average of 3mbit/s per user 250 users with single devices, 3% utilization typical

  • Ex. (3mbit/s x 250 x 3%) = 22.5mbit/s internet access

250 users with multiple devices, 4% utilization typical

  • Ex. (3mbit/s x 250 x 4%) = 30mbit/s internet access

Calculating your networking needs

Premium User Email attachments, Web Applications and Streaming Audio Average of 5mbit/s per user 250 users with single devices, 5% utilization typical

  • Ex. (5mbit/s x 250 x 5%) = 62.5mbit/s internet access

250 users with multiple devices, 8% utilization typical

  • Ex. (5mbit/s x 250 x 8%) = 100mbit/s internet access

Calculating your networking needs

Ultra/Power User Large file transfer, Lead/Presenter, HD Video Streaming Average of 7 to 10mbit/s per user 250 users with single devices, 10% utilization typical

  • Ex. 7 mbit/s x 250 x 10% = 175mbit/s internet access

250 users with multiple devices, 15% utilization typical

  • Ex. 7 mbit/s x 250 x 15% = 262.5mbit/s internet access

Questions

Why do venues still feel the need to charge for BASIC internet? How can you determine how much bandwidth your group will need and if the venue can accommodate it? Ways to reduce costs

Questions

Why do hotels charge an extra internet fee for meeting rooms when guests staying at the hotel receive Wi-Fi in their rooms? Is the internet connection often not strong enough? Is this in case other attendees, not staying at the hotel, come to the meeting?
