Customer Demarcation: this is where the LEC/provider's responsibiltiy ends and the customer's begins. Typically mounted outside for smaller sites, but usually inside for larger/commercial sites.
Interconnect Company: Company that "bridges the gap" between the LEC and the end-user. Typically will take care of all the services that the LEC doesn't take part in and specializes in services that the end-user doesn't usually handle themselves. These services usually include:
- Cabling/Infrastructure
- Phone Systems
- Video Surveillance
- Network Security
- Network Hardware Installation & Programming
- Data Storage/Offsite Backup
- Wireless Connectivity
- Infrastructure Troubleshooting
- Third-party Vendor assistance
ASG Communications Inc. considers itself an Interconnect Company and will assist you with all of the above and more. Feel free to email or call today.

Here is a wireless bridge installation recently done at an Oklahoma City site. Using bridge connections helped inter-connect several other buildings within one intranetwork. This was a cost-effective measure, which circumvented the expense of time, labor, and materials to reach out to seperate physical locations.

Recent structured cabling installation at Outlet Malls in Oklahoma City, OK. This is pre-production photo. This tidiness of cabling and management is typical for any of our installations. Organization makes troubleshooting easier for any instances in that may arise in the future.

Structured Cabling
When it comes to communications, the transfer of voice and data is only as good as the physical circuit it traverses. You definitely don't want to cut too many corners when it comes to your physical cabling plant.
ASG Communications offers and prides itself on our structured cabling solutions in mediums such as Cat5e, Cat6, fiber , and coaxial cable. We offer add-ons, retrofits, and new installations. Whether you need one cable ran or if you need 300 cables ran, we have the expertise and manpower to make it happen. We've cabled or been involved in installations ranging from law offices, schools, jail facilities, banks, government agencies, and even smaller installations like homes or small offices. No job is too small or too big.

Wireless Hotspots and Hosting
Wi-Fi (wireless-fidelity) is another cost-effective measure to extend out to those "hard to reach" places. Wi-Fi circumvents the manpower, time, and cost that it takes to get your network extended to some of your desired locations within your infrastructure. Wi-Fi also helps make businesses more attractive and customer friendly which helps generate even more customers. Hosting Wi-Fi hotspots is almost a commodity and provides attraction. If you already have a Wi-Fi network setup and are having "dead zones" or low signal areas, let us come out and do a site survey see where we can improve your wireless signal.
Are you concerned about the security and reliability associated with wireless networking? Worry no more, we've got you covered. Best practices suggest, always having your Wi-Fi network secured. Precious resources and information can be in jeopardy. Let us get you secured today!

Voice & Data Communications
In today's network topologies voice and data communications are merging together more and more. Having seperate communication pathways for voice and data networks are a thing of the past. It isn't cost effective to have two different cabling pathways and equipment, supporting two different infrastructures. Voice can now travel over a data network utilizing what is called VoIP or Voice over IP.
Voice and data actually complement each other by merging together on the same network with features such as "call unity". This is where your voice mail can be transferred into an e-mail which helps you spend less time going back and forth between your phone and PC. This is just an example of one of the many features that are available with VoIP systems. Nowadays you can have so many more options that actually help you streamline your work load and time spent throughout your business day, so you can focus on your business tasks.

Hardware Installation and Turn-Ups
Need more network hardware? Again, here is another area that you really want to cover all your bases. Your physical plant takes care of the "roads" the signal travels over, but the hardware devices take care of the switching and routing features that play a direct role on just how fast your network is going to be.
ASG Communications installs, configures, and maintains your network hardware. These devices may include, but are not limited to routers, switches, firewalls, WAP's(wireless access points),etc. We will also consult and design a network topology to give you a better edge and streamline your data communications. Feel free to call or e-mail anytime.

Video Surveillance Systems
In addition to our inside cabling, we also offer video surveillance. Surveillance is one the fastest growing technology markets, due to accountability needs, crime rates, loss prevention, and remote management needs.
Currently, surveillance systems are getting more affordable and powerful; allowing for remote access via web browser and smartphones. You can remotely view and playback footage if you need to from anywhere in the world. Also, if needed, you can have infrared cameras installed to allow for night viewing or low-light viewing.

Network Security
How vulnerable is your data? What measures are you currently taking, if any? Do you have a plan in place that will allow you to recover from a network intrusion? These are some of the questions you should ask yourself, if you want to insure that your data is safe, and out of harms way.
We can help you get on the road to safety by figuring out just where your data network is vulnerable, and take the precautions necessary, to insure that your data will stay safe and away from unwanted viewers. There are alot of people out there that may have the necessary tools and skills, to either get into your network and just "fool around", but there are other's that may get in and actually have a course of action, to potentially put malicious software on your network or even steal data, leaving a "back-door" to get in at a later date.
The best way to combat these type of dangers are to be pro-active by doing some of the following:
- Install a Firewall Appliance (actual hardware that keeps unwanted traffic out)
- Content Filtering (most firewall appliances will do this as well; filter out what your end users are accessing on the Internet & keep them off specific sites, porn and gaming sites are the #1 places you can get malicious material from, hackers fill these sites with software that will install itself on your system and allow them access later, at will)
- Install Anti-virus on your machines
- Update/Patch all needed alerts from OS vendors
- UAC (User Access Control)- who has access to your internal network? (LAN)
- Remote Users (they should be remoting in through a VPN or Client-VPN based software)
- Remote Sites/Branch Offices (how are you inter-connected with your other parts?)
ASG Communications, Inc. can find a simple, but affordable solution to keep your business safe and give you peace of mind to not have to worry about the "what if's", that you don't want to have to face in the first place! Call Today 405-241-6811
When the need for communications is absolute, but the distance for a copper medium is too far, you can always extend to your remote end with a fiber trunk by using a media converter on both ends of your fiber link. We can show you how, give us a call or e-mail today!
Functionality and Tidiness are two primary goals we strive to achieve during every installation.
