Internet & phones in Penrose
When the internet drops, your IT provider and your internet provider shouldn't point at each other. We arrange business fibre, add a backup connection and set up cloud phones, then look after all of it alongside your IT.
Onsite technicians cover Penrose. Most problems are fixed remotely first; when a job needs hands, a technician comes to you.
Internet & phones for Penrose businesses
Penrose is one of the central isthmus's main industrial areas, with manufacturers, trade wholesalers, distribution warehouses, engineering shops and building suppliers along Great South Road, Church Street and the surrounding streets. Offices are typically attached to a warehouse or factory floor.
Industrial sites need Wi-Fi that reaches across the racking for scanners and tablets, cabling that survives dust and forklifts, and network links between buildings on the same section. The office side runs accounting, inventory and freight systems that stop dispatch if they go down, so reliable internet and a backup connection are worth having.
If you already use Microsoft 365, your phone system can live inside Teams, so calls, chat and meetings are in one place. If you'd rather keep desk phones and a reception console, we set up a hosted system that does that well.
Technicians come to Penrose sites for warehouse Wi-Fi, cabling, scanners and office computers, and fix most everyday problems remotely. Site work is planned around shifts and dispatch times.
What's included
Number porting
Your existing numbers moved across without losing calls, including 0800 numbers.
Backup internet
A second connection on a different network that takes over automatically if fibre fails.
Business fibre
The right plan for your address and team size, ordered and installed with your network.
Copper switch-off
If your old lines are being retired, we move alarms, EFTPOS and phones before the deadline.
Cloud phone systems
Hosted phone systems with desk phones, mobile apps, call queues, recording and voicemail to email.
Teams calling
Phone numbers inside Microsoft Teams, so staff make and take calls from the app they already use.
Is it right for your Penrose office?
This is a good fit if:
- Your phones still run on copper lines or an old onsite system
- An internet outage would stop your business
- Staff work between home and the office
- You want fewer bills and one number to call when something breaks
How getting started works
- Free IT health check. We look at your devices, accounts, backups and network and tell you what we find, in plain English.
- Clear proposal. A written monthly price per user and a list of any fixes, with nothing hidden.
- Handover. We collect admin access and documentation from your current provider and keep your team working.
- Day-one fixes. Security gaps, failed backups and urgent risks are dealt with first.
Internet & phones in Penrose: questions
Our scanners drop out at the back of the warehouse. Can you fix that?
Usually, yes. Racking and stock block signal, so warehouse Wi-Fi needs a survey and access points placed for the aisles rather than the office. We measure coverage and quote the design and installation in writing.
Can you connect our office to a second building on the same site?
We can run cable or fibre between buildings where there is a practical route, or use a point-to-point wireless link where trenching is not worth it. All of it is low-voltage data work, quoted before we start.
Do you sell the internet plan or does a provider?
We arrange the plan with a wholesale provider and look after it as part of your IT, so you have one point of contact.
What happens to our phones if the internet goes down?
With a backup connection, calls keep working. Without one, calls can be diverted to mobiles automatically until the internet is back.
Can we keep our phone numbers?
Yes. Landline and 0800 numbers can be moved to a new system. We manage the port and time the change to avoid missed calls.
How long does the switch take?
Fibre installs depend on the building and provider. Phone system changes are usually done in a week or two once numbers are confirmed.
