  • Abstract
    Considerations for the selection of deployable local area networks (LANs) for use in a tactical environment are discussed. These considerations include the LAN components. LAN standards, and LAN performance issues. Recommendations for deployed users are presented, covering standards, future growth, fiber optics, topology and protocols, and the need for designing the system `smart´ from the beginning
