Estudio de conectividad y red comunitaria accesible para el sector La Macarena, Conocoto-Quito

Abstract

Abstract: This curriculum integration project proposes the creation and implementation of a community network in the sector called La Macarena , through a technical and financial study of two connectivity alternatives: point-to-point wireless link and terrestrial fiber optic. The goal of this project is to guarantee fast and continuous internet access and connectivity for a community of 30 families, who need this service. According to Tanenbaum (2011), internet networks with a tree topology allow for optimal data traffic management, enabling grater scalability in projects, especially in those with multiple distribution nodes. For this reason, an appropriate technical solution involves the establishment of a structured community network. This architecture incorporates NAP (Network Access Points) ant ONT (Optical Network Termination) terminals to efficiently distribute the services. This project promotes digital inclusion, access to new opportunities for growth, and the community s technological self-management which favor the reduction of the digital divide in vulnerable areas.
