We live in electrifying times—and we mean that literally!

We are reaping the benefits of the Third Industrial Revolution—the digital revolution that has been occurring since the middle of the last century. Our world is now positioned in the first stages of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, complete with Internet of Things (IoT) connected devices and non-IoT connected devices numbering in the

Pleased with yourself, you decide to go to your bedroom to relax and stream a movie—then the buffering begins. You call your ISP provider and confirm that everything checks out.

So, what’s the deal?

Chances are you need a mesh Wi-Fi system.

When you hear the name Elon Musk, what things come to mind?

Perhaps you think of things like:

• His electric car company Tesla
• His foray into space exploration via SpaceX
• His habit of stirring up controversy on social media
• The fact that he smoked weed on a filmed podcast with comedian Joe Rogan (he was in California at the time and it was legal)
• That he gave one of his children the curious name of X AE A-12
• That he makes quirky comments like, “I would like to die on Mars. Just not on impact.”
• That as of January, he had a net worth of $185 billion and was briefly declared the richest person in the world

Or perhaps something else might come to mind: a venture called Starlink.

Ethernet is a Local Area Network (LAN) technology that connects network devices (such as computers, printers, etc.) via Ethernet switches and routers. Industrial Ethernet is a further development of Ethernet and is a bit more complicated. This technology applies Ethernet abilities to automation and control systems used in industrial manufacturing. It has recently surpassed traditional Fieldbus architectures

In case you haven’t heard, we are in the midst of a global semiconductor shortage.

The first monolithic integrated circuit (IC) chip was invented sixty-two years ago by Robert Noyle at Fairchild Semiconductor. This small electrical “gadget” has since become a critical component for everything from smartphones and computers to vehicles and appliances.

What Is a Chip?

Techopedia defines a “chip” as follows:

As city populations increase every year, they get crowded, and resources are stretched to their limits. Today’s cities must evolve to meet the needs of their residents. Here are some interesting statistics:

• In 2020, 56 percent of the global population lived in cities.¹
• In the same year, 83.6 percent of North American countries’ populations lived in cities.¹
• The United Nations predicts that 68 percent of the world’s population will live in urban areas by 2050.²

Cities must deal with the often overwhelming problems of social and economic imbalance among their citizens. One of the most viable ways to increase a city’s effectiveness and efficiency is

One of the most common questions regarding Ethernet cabling is: What type of cabling should I choose? There is much confusion on this topic. When choosing the right cabling solution for your particular network infrastructure, you need to know the difference between the different cable categories. The purpose of this article is to help you determine which type of Ethernet cabling suits your needs.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) delivers both power and data concurrently via twisted pair Ethernet cabling. This technology improves network agility and scalability in efficient and cost-effective ways. There are several types of PoE devices, for example, the PoE switch, PoE splitter, PoE injector, etc. This article focuses on the PoE injector: What is it? What does it work? Are there different types?
