Describe the business benefits associated with VoIP
Voice Over IP (VoIP) transmits voice calls over Internet technology and is used because it reduces the costs and complexities associated with traditional telephone services. Skype and Viber are two popular examples of VoIP.

Compare LANs and WANs
LAN - local area network: designed to connect a group of computers in close proximity to each other, such as in an office, school or home.
WAN - wide area network: spans a large georphic area, such as a state or country. WAN's can connect multiple smaller LAN's.

4.
Describe RFID and how it can be used to help make a supply chain more
effective.
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) - technologies using active or passive tages in the form of chips or smart labels that can store unique identifiers and relay this information to electronic readers. One way RFID is used is in traking physical assets such as manafacturers and retailers, similar to a bar code, the RFID stores basic product details and pricing information. This can make the supply chain more effective becuase the RFID does not need to be scanned directly, the tag just needs to be within range of a reader. This reduces time and labour costs of scanning individual products, cases or pallets.
