Independent Network & Telecom Technician

Audit and Planning

• Identify access points (wall outlets, offices, rooms).
• Create a star topology wiring diagram (each outlet connects to a central patch panel).
• Choose cable category (Cat 6, 6A, or 7 for future-proofing).

Cable Installation

• Run cables through walls, conduits, or false ceilings.
• Follow standards (ISO/IEC 11801, max 90m between outlet and patch panel).

Termination and Patching

• Terminate cables to RJ45 wall outlets (T568B color code).
• Patch ends into patch panels in the telecom cabinet.

Testing and Certification

• Test each link with a cable certifier (loss, crosstalk, length).
• Label each cable and outlet (e.g., “Office 3 – Port 1”).

Documentation

• Provide a network diagram, outlet list, and assigned IP addresses.

Fiber Selection

• Single-mode (long distance, hotels, professional sites).
• Multi-mode (short distance, offices, shops).

Installation and Protection

• Run cables in protective conduits.
• Avoid sharp bends (>10x cable diameter).

Termination and Splicing

• Polish or splice fibers with a splicer.
• Install fiber trays in the cabinet for easy management.

Optical Testing

• Measure attenuation with an OTDR (Optical Time Domain Reflectometer).
• Verify signal loss (max 0.3 dB/km for single-mode).

Patching and Labeling

• Connect fibers to SFP ports on switches.
• Label each fiber (e.g., “Fiber 1 – Server → Main Switch”).

Cabinet Installation

• Mount the 19", 42U cabinet to the wall or floor.
• Install rails, fans, and PDUs (power distribution units).

Equipment Organization

• Place switches, routers, servers, UPS units.
• Use cable managers to avoid tangles.

Patching Cables

• Patch copper cables (RJ45) to patch panels.
• Connect fiber optics to fiber trays.
• Use color-coded patch cords (e.g., blue = LAN, red = VoIP, green = WiFi).

Labeling and Documentation

• Label each patch panel port and equipment.
• Provide a cabinet diagram (2D or 3D).

WiFi Audit

• Map dead zones with a measurement tool (e.g., NetSpot, Ekahau).
• Identify interference sources (microwaves, Bluetooth).

Equipment Selection

• Wi-Fi 6/6E access points for hotels and offices.
• Mesh solution for large homes or stores.

Installation and Configuration

• Place access points 5-10m apart (depending on power).
• Configure a single SSID, optimal channel, WPA3 security.

Testing and Optimization

• Verify coverage and speed (e.g., speedtest on each floor).
• Enable roaming for seamless handoff between access points.

Documentation

• Provide a WiFi coverage map.
• Indicate passwords, channels, AP IP addresses.

Camera Selection

• Indoor (dome), outdoor (bullet), with or without IR.
• 4K resolution, motion detection, audio.

Camera Installation

• Mount cameras on walls/ceilings.
• Run PoE (RJ45) cables or use separate power supplies.

NVR Configuration

• Connect cameras to PoE switch.
• Configure recordings (24h, motion detection, disk storage).

Remote Access

• Configure port forwarding or DDNS for external access.
• Create user accounts with limited rights (e.g., viewing only).

Testing and Documentation

• Verify video quality, motion detection, remote access.
• Provide a user guide and camera layout.

System Selection

• IPTV streaming (via local network) or individual set-top boxes (STB).
• Integrate local channels (via antenna or satellite).

Equipment Installation

• Install IPTV server or central decoder.
• Connect TVs via Ethernet or Wi-Fi.

Channel Configuration

• Create a channel list (M3U) with logos and numbers.
• Configure channels by region (e.g., Italian channels for Italian hotels).

User Interface

• Customize interface (hotel logo, menus, TV guide).
• Add services (VOD, weather, meal times).

Testing and Training

• Verify video quality, stream stability, navigation.
• Train staff on channel management and user accounts.

Pre-configuration of Equipment

• Configure base IP addresses of switches and routers (management IP).
• Define base VLANs (e.g., VLAN 10 for users, VLAN 20 for printers).
• Apply admin passwords and basic security rules.

Connection to Existing Network

• Connect switches and routers to existing equipment (other switches, routers, servers).
• Verify physical connections (cables, LED indicators).
• Adjust IP/VLAN settings to avoid conflicts with the existing network.

Connectivity Tests

• Test connectivity with `ping` between devices (switch → router → server).
• Verify access to critical services (printing, internet, file server).
• Validate network stability over 24h (if possible).

Documentation and Training

• Provide a network diagram with IP addresses, VLANs, equipment.
• Train users or internal admin on basic usage and troubleshooting.
• Document basic procedures (reboot, password change, adding a workstation).

What’s included

• Needs analysis and website structure definition (pages, navigation).
• Clean and professional design adapted to your business.
• Development using .NET 8 and Razor Pages.
• Contact / quote form with email and database storage.
• Basic performance and SEO optimization.
• Performance and best practices (lightweight pages)

Deployment & go-live

• Preparation of the application for the production environment.
• Deployment to the hosting provider of your choice (OVH, IONOS, Azure, others).
• Basic configuration (domain name, HTTPS, environment variables).
• Final checks after go-live.

Deliverables

• Production-ready website.
• Clean and maintainable code.
• Administrator access (if required).
• Short usage and maintenance documentation.
