In previous articles, we have covered the benefits of routers in the office. However, like many items of technology, the benefits to you, as a small business owner and operator, are endless. In this article, we are going to cover three more benefits that can be observed with the installation of Juniper routers in your workplace.
Routers are a great addition to any office, especially a modernized one. You need simple, yet effective networking solutions for modern employee issues, like connecting multiple wireless devices to the busi-ness network, or adding an additional level of network security for data being transferred in and out of the network. You also need networking solutions that are physically safe to implement, and help ensure the safety of your employees.
Juniper routers can be that solution.
Routers Help Employees Connect All Their Devices to the Network
It is common for most people to have a couple of devices (at least) which can connect to the Internet. An employee in any given day may need to use his or her personal pager, smartphone, laptop, and com-pany desktop computer. Sending and receiving data on all those devices, not to mention needing to send data to others on the company network, or outside the network, will require a good routing solu-tion.
Routers are a great addition to any business network because devices on the network do not need to be connected in order to communicate. Instead, each device communicates with the router, which passes along data to the relevant receiving device on the network.
Routers Provide Increased Data and Network Security
There is no such this as 100% security, neither in life nor in information technology. However, we should always do our best to increasing secure and improve our business networks. Not doing so leaves your business a target for hackers and scammers. By using a router, you are providing one extra layer of secu-rity, as all traffic is filtered through the IP address designated to each device by the router, not the vari-ous IP addresses of your own devices on the network.
Security is always important. If you can find a way to conduct business more securely, without hamper-ing access to data or materials, etc., you should. The more secure your business is, the safer you will feel, and the stronger your business will be from hackers.
Routers Declutter the Workplace, Making it Safer
It can be difficult to work in a small office. With papers everywhere, little room to walk around, and mul-tiple staff sharing space and desks with each other, it can be easy to lose your balance from time to time and fall down. This should be avoided whenever possible. Routers can make your workplace safer. Rout-ers replace the need for devices to connect to the network via wires, which means that your floor will be home to less tripping hazards.
The emphasis on safety makes routers a great addition to the network. The safer you can make your employees feel, the happier they will be.
