Challenges

  • On its premises in Bad Salzuflen, in the north of Germany, POS TUNING was operating a local network based on ALE LAN and WLAN technology. In 2017, the company decided to upgrade its WLAN since existing components had reached the end of their lifecycle and were no longer able to offer adequate performance.
  • In addition, more bandwidth was needed to achieve complete WLAN coverage of the entire site. Further requirements were the creation of guest WiFi access without additional software as well as a centralized, unified network management system for LAN and WLAN for greater efficiency and simplicity.

Results

Technical benefits

  • POS TUNING now has complete coverage of its entire administration area. Soon, the three production halls and the warehouse, all located on the same site, will also be equipped with Stellar access points.
  • OmniVista 2500 and ProActive Lifecycle Management (PALM) provide unified configuration and policy management for WAN and WLAN for centralized operations.
  • The single web-based user interface has simplified IT operations and boosted efficiency.

 

Financial benefits

  • ProActive Lifecycle Management (PALM)  helps the IT team track network health while reducing their administration and management burden, enabling them to focus on higher value tasks.
  • The future-proof WLAN can be built on to meet future needs in a cost-effective manner.

 

User experience benefits

  • Staff and visitors connect to their separate SSID networks for greater performance and security.
  • Wi-Fi is available throughout the POS TUNING site, supporting mobility and facilitating communications onsite.
