A well-designed network is critical to ensure the maximum throughput of traffic across the business network. Your Network should be designed to be redundant, reliable and predictable. Increasing the number of devices in a network can rapidly increase the complexity of that network and lead to unexpected traffic behavior.

Design Consulting & Network Re-Design Services

At ValueBoxx we advise our clients to undertake a proper network analysis, before commencing any large network installation project. A network audit that evaluates both existing infrastructure and the long term requirements of the network ensures the correct hardware is supplied to meet both current and future needs. Network configuration, security requirements and optimization strategies will also be considered.

Once the evaluation is complete a full design proposal is presented to the client highlighting firstly the limitations of their current network topologies and devices and secondly recommendations for an optimized solution. Our expert recommendations will be submitted on how the current equipment can be used, reconfigured or upgraded to meet network requirements.

The network design proposal will include detailed logical and physical topology diagrams, network IP architecture, designs for redundancy, proposed routing protocol usage, recommendations for disaster recovery, and detailed descriptions and explanations of all technologies to be used. The objective will be to optimize the performance of the network whilst maintaining manageability.

ValueBoxx offer a full On-Site Consulting service that covers any aspect of your network from start to finish. Our experienced Consultants & Certified engineers can come to your premises to fix any urgent problems you may be experiencing or meet with management/IT staff to discuss the most efficient and cost effective ways to implement necessary changes to your infrastructure.

We can investigate your system and produce a detailed report that will list all the work we believe should be carried out to optimize performance, which includes a start/finish timetable and estimated costs. We’re happy to discuss this report with you and once you’re happy and have approved the contents or our recommended proposal, our engineers can proceed even to implement the solution.
