Multi-Store Retail Networking
When the network drops, EFTPOS stops — and so does revenue. We design, run, and monitor store networks built for trading: cloud-managed hardware, secure links back to head office, and failover that kicks in before customers notice.
We manage Cisco Meraki networks across every location of a national retail group, plus the VPN mesh connecting 13+ stores to their POS back-office.
What We Manage
Store, warehouse, and head-office networking as one coherent system — not a pile of routers nobody owns.
Cloud-Managed Networks
Cisco Meraki firewalls, switches, and access points across all sites — centrally visible, centrally managed, consistently configured.
Store-to-HQ VPN
Secure connectivity between stores, head office, and cloud-hosted POS servers, with legacy VPN replacements planned properly.
PCI-Aware Segmentation
Payment terminals, POS, guest Wi-Fi, and back-office traffic separated so a compromise in one zone can't reach the register.
Internet & Carrier Management
We deal with Telstra/NBN and carriers on your behalf — orders, faults, and escalations for every site, including phone systems.
Failover & Continuity
4G/5G backup links and dual-WAN designs so EFTPOS and POS keep trading through an internet outage.
New Store Openings
Network, Wi-Fi, POS connectivity, and EFTPOS ready on day one — fit-out coordination included, relocations and closures handled too.
Business Outcomes
For operations leaders who measure the network by one thing: are the stores trading?
- Outages detected and worked before store staff have to ring anyone
- EFTPOS continuity through failover — no more "cash only" signs
- Consistent, documented network builds across every store
- One partner accountable for carriers, hardware, and configuration
Detailed FAQ
Common questions about multi-site retail networks.
Our stores use an ageing VPN that keeps dropping. Can you fix it?
Yes — this is a problem we know intimately. We stabilise the current setup first, then plan a staged migration to modern site-to-site VPN or SD-WAN with no trading interruption.
Do we have to replace all our network hardware at once?
No. We typically standardise store by store as leases, failures, and budgets allow, keeping a documented target design so every refresh converges on the same standard.
Can you get a new store online for opening day?
Yes — given the fit-out schedule, we order carriage early (lead times are the usual killer), pre-configure hardware, and commission the store network before launch.
