Infrastructure/Communication Networks

This part contains articles about all used communication networks of the GridLab. Those networks may be devided in two groups on the basis of their range.

Laboratory communication networks

Those networks are laboratory wide and form an inherent part of the schools networks. Those networks are therefore cabled with Universal Cabling and are based on the same cable types etc.
The following networks are laboratory wide networks.

• Local Area Network (LAN)
• Telephone Network

Workplace communication networks

Those are communication networks which are used locally on some workplaces of the Gridlab.

• RS-485

Note

• A list of all devices connected to the LAN over the internet protocol (IP) with their address configuration may be found in the IP address list.
