We invest $6 million in our network infrastructure refresh

2020

We have invested $6 million to refresh our core network infrastructure. The refresh involves Cisco routers and other network technology through a multi-phase process to bolster our managed services offering for mid-to-large size enterprise customers. We picked Cisco’s ASR 9000 Series high performance aggregation services routers to “turbocharge” our network refresh, to serve demanding edge markets and support the applications required to power our global customer 4G and 5G service requirements. Our managing director Chris Marshall said, “Our core network infrastructure refresh raises the bar for automated, scalable and secure networks.

“By partnering with Cisco, we’re delivering a solution that allows us to automate service provisioning, accelerating the time to value for our customers. Indeed, the speed at which we can onboard last-mile, inter data-centre connectivity services and aggregation services will now increase exponentially.”

The new infrastructure will also enable us to solidify its mid-market offering for multi-site and SD-WAN requirements and provide a lower total cost of ownership through data centre partners. Cisco ANZ boss Ken Boal said, “Cisco is excited to work with blueAPACHE to provide the latest networking technology as they embark on their national network refresh project.”

“Cisco’s innovation in software and systems designs, enables automation to create scalable and secure networks at a speed. This will support the capacity increase that underpins blueAPACHE core offerings and managed services.”
