Abstract

The simultaneous growth of different businesses has led to some outstanding initiatives such as Economic Zones(EZ). The government and non-government organizations are building such zones in distinct areas to attract different foreign investors to invest and make the economy of the country strong. Bangladesh is a leading developing country with a lower middle income and there is around forty-seven Economic Zones are being developed by both government and private organizations. To attract the Foreign Direct Investment (FDIs), to make the Economic Zone persuasive to different international organization we need to modernize and make the Economic Zone world class. In addition, to make the Economic Zones world class we need a proper IT infrastructure or information system, therefore, we are going to create a blueprint on how to construct a standard Information Technology Infrastructure for EZs. In order to construct the blueprint, we will propose how to design hierarchical switched Local Area Network(LAN) and data center, configuration of wireless connection with appropriate Wide Area Network(WAN) technology, IP surveillance system and proper networking security system.
