Past and present: Networking refreshed – 5G and cloud-managed networks
Phil Tarbox. National Sales Manager, Business Solutions
Over the past 12 months, 5G technology has dominated headlines as Australia’s telcos battle it out for bandwidth supremacy. The excitement is understandable: 5G will make everything from autonomous vehicles and connected cities a tangible reality, meaning Smart City investment is no longer a luxury but a necessity. Cloud Managed Wireless Networks have been all the rage for some years – but can it be done better? Would adding Switching into the mix, amongst other products, help MSP’s to offer higher quality services to their customers? Phil will give an overview and demonstration of Nuclias - D-Link’s newly launched Cloud Managed networking solution, with Switches, Wi-Fi Access Points, and IP Surveillance Cameras and Routing on the roadmap – all from a simple, easy to use dashboard – with monthly billing.

10 Factors to consider when choosing and deploying any RMM solution.
Jack Rolfe, Channel Account Manager
RMM solutions are designed to address 3 key MSP business concerns; cash flow, time, and customer experience. RMM solutions allow MSPs to move from offering break-fix services and reactive support to being able to identify and proactively remedy issues before they become a problem. This improves overall customer experience and we know that offering proactive service support means MSPs can have access to stable and scalable monthly recurring revenue. However, the real advantage is that RMM solutions allow MSPs to automate routine tasks, such as OS updates, policy enforcement, and best practice implementation - noting that with the Notifiable Data Breach Scheme, policy compliance is more crucial than ever.

Nestled among the serenity of beautiful beaches and rolling hills, Adelaide is a hive of multiculturalism with a pumping arts and live-music scene, and a burgeoning small-bar scene. In October, the hills are alive with the sounds of German Oktoberfest. For the lovers of the outdoors, Adelaide is a perfect location for a lazy stroll on the beach or a rugged run or bike ride in the beautiful Mt Lofty Ranges. A quick trip to the north or to the south brings you to some of the best wines in the world from the Barossa Valley and McLaren Vale regions.
