Wireless networking has become a must have in the recent years especially where additional cabling is simply not required. Not to mention employees & visitors at all levels expect to be able to walk into the office, anywhere in the world, and connect faultlessly to the same services as if they were sat in their own office or at home. Siemens Healthcare Diagnostic Solutions, North Wales had yet to install such facility.
Siemens asked Sole Systems to source, manage and deliver a wireless network that would provide authentication for all Siemens employees wherever their geographical location within the company.
Working closely with Siemens Infrastructure team we had a number of factors to take into account, one of which was implementing the wireless network into their existing HP Network. Because of this investment by Siemens in HP, we wanted to use utilise existing equipment where possible which saved time and money.
Core to the success of the system was our policy to transfer knowledge of the installation. Explaining in detail how to manage the system rather than simply how the system works. It meant that the on-site IT team became instant experts, able to offer practice advice without reference either to Sole Systems or to the manufacturers.
Just one example of how we bring our joined up thinking to HP wireless networking.
