Your computer network is the foundation upon which all your other IT services operate. Without a well-planned and well implemented network all other IT services are at risk of failure which in turn puts your business at risk. Network as a service becomes highly appealing to small/ medium-sized businesses and new businesses, as it avoids several capital investment expenses for network hardware. Network as a service also reduces the man-hours, training, and skill requirement of network staff needed for the maintenance of a network.
When designing a network a thorough understanding of the business objectives and the appropriate technology to achieve those objectives needs to be understood by the design team. Clearly, performance is critical, however, future requirements must also be taken into consideration and therefore the design needs to be scalable and within the budget.
Our managed networking capabilities, from design and delivery, to continuous monitoring and support, will ensure your business is always connected. This means you will always have access to your critical data and applications, as well as your central and hosted services, ensuring you can focus on your core business.

Virtual LANs can improve the overall performance of networks. VLANs are intended to group together devices that communicate with each other most frequently. The traffic between devices split across two or more physical networks ordinarily needs to be handled by a network's core routers, but with a VLAN that traffic can be handled more efficiently by network switches instead.
VLANs also bring additional security benefits by allowing greater control over which devices have local access to each other. Wi-Fi guest networks are often implemented using wireless access points that support VLANs. Handsets on cloud phone systems would be another example where a VLAN is deployed. This enables all the voice traffic to be
VLAN’s are typically used on a network for:
• Data Network
• Voice Network
• Wi-Fi
• Guest Wi-Fi
• CCTV
