Network Architecture and Design
We take a holistic view of Network Architecture and design. The structure of an existing network should only be changed after careful consideration of all possible consequences.
Prophecy Networks staff have completed projects with responsibility for all aspects of the design of large scale, telecommunications data networks. We completed a nationwide rollout of high speed wide area and metro area networks using the latest wirespeed routing and switching technologies available in the market place. We have provided the design and technical expertise to complete aggressive deployments that have been completed, commissioned and acceptance tested on time and on budget.
Today we also have a track record of security audits and network design and redesign projects that have been customer driven and focussed. While we have experience of the largest networks we also can work within the small, medium and large enterprise environment.
