CISCO Lab |
The Cisco networking lab is equipped with computers and a network tower. The lab's network tower has five roughers, several hubs, switches, and network cable drops. This lab is not connected to the Norcross High network to prevent networking interference between the students and technology support staff. This gives the students a real life network for them to apply acquired information from classroom instruction. The lab also has a teacher workstation complete with overhead projection device, scanner, CD writer, and a Lexmark printer.
