Wired Connection: Benefits

A wired network obviously incorporates physical network into the data connection. The wires enable increased security, control, reliability, and speed. Using physical connections might not seem as advances as the wireless alternative, but it is the superior choice when your data is precious and confidential. If your business values security over hip trends in tech, a wired network is the obvious choice.

Hardwired connections are a type of network solution that will always be faster and more consistent than wireless connections. If you are connecting to a local database such as Quickbooks, an unstable wireless connection could adversely affect the performance of the software.

Keeping your network wired also ensures that the network won’t get bogged down with non-essential traffic. Unauthorized users can’t jump on your network, obviously increasing security. Additionally, those iPhones and tablets might make for a happier workforce. But is that because they are being more productive benefiting from the increased accessibility of a wireless network? Or, it is because they are browsing Amazon or Facebook while on the clock?
