Araknis Networks Serving Northern Virginia & the DC metropolitan area

Araknis Networks for Homes & Business Properties

Work calls, streaming, cameras and home controls all depend on the connections behind them. IMS brings Araknis routing, switching and wireless access into a coordinated network design, with cabling and equipment placement considered from the start.

Plan the Connections around the Property

A home office, outdoor living area and equipment rack have different requirements. We review the incoming internet service, the connected systems and the places that need coverage, then establish the wired connections and access-point locations.

In a business property, we coordinate that plan with the owner and the responsible IT team. The design accounts for staff work areas, guest access and connected building systems.

Routing, Switching and Wi-Fi Selected Together

Araknis offers routers, network switches and wireless access points. Each serves a different part of the installation: routing handles connections between networks, switching links wired devices, and access points provide wireless coverage.

Port counts, uplinks and power requirements guide equipment selection. Cameras and access points may draw power from the switch, so those needs belong in the plan alongside the cable routes and equipment locations.

Management Built into the Design

Compatible Araknis products support OvrC remote management. The available diagnostics and remote functions depend on the equipment and configuration. IMS establishes the management approach and access responsibilities within the project scope.

For ongoing support, we discuss the service arrangement that suits the property. See our service plans for the next conversation.

Installation Details that Matter over Time

Equipment spaces need appropriate ventilation, organized patching and accessible connections. IMS coordinates these details with the builder and other trades, including the routes available in an existing property.

See IMS network infrastructure projects for examples of wiring and equipment organization.

Planning an Araknis Installation or Update

Can IMS review an existing network?

Yes. Start with the equipment models, the behavior you are seeing and the changes you want. We review incoming service, cabling, wireless coverage and management access before defining the work.

Does remote management resolve every problem?

Remote diagnostics can help identify and address some issues. Physical wiring faults, equipment replacement and other conditions may require a visit. The support scope and response arrangements are discussed separately.

Discuss Your Network with IMS
