Abstract :
The aim of this article is to introduce the operators a new internetworking proposal for the enterprises, and in short, for the industrial estates where which predominate generally are SMEs (small and medium enterprises). Today, telecommunications operators can choose basically from two different possibilities: optical fiber and copper wires, and wireless for remote areas; and we propose another choice, the use of HFC (hybrid fiber coax) networks for industrial estates
