You have been hired by a small company to install a backbone to connect four 100base-T Ethernet
LANs (each using one 24-port hub) and to provide a connection to the Internet. Develop a simple
backbone and determine the total cost (i.e., select the backbone technology and price it, select the
cabling and price it, select the devices and price them, and so on). Prices are available at
www.datacommwarehouse.com, but use any source that is convenient. For simplicity, assume that
category 5, category 5e, category 6, and fiber-optic cable have a fixed cost per circuit to buy and
install, regardless of distance, $50, $60, $120, and $300, respectively.
