Pharmacy Network Management

A pharmacy network is a clinical system. We design, segment and monitor it like one.

Most pharmacy networks grow organically — a switch added here, a Wi-Fi extender there — until a single bad cable can take down dispensing, EFTPOS and CCTV at once.

WAPIT rebuilds your network around clinical priorities: dispensing on its own VLAN, POS and EFTPOS isolated for PCI DSS, staff and guest Wi-Fi separated, and an SD-WAN edge that fails over to 4G/5G the moment your fixed line drops.

What's included

Built for Australian pharmacy operations.

Segmented VLANs

Dispensing, POS, EFTPOS, CCTV, staff and guest traffic split into separate, firewalled networks.

SD-WAN with 4G/5G failover

Sub-30-second failover to mobile broadband so dispensing keeps running through outages.

Business-grade Wi-Fi

Coverage surveys, WPA3 Enterprise, captive-portal guest network and roaming across multi-floor stores.

Next-gen firewall

Application-aware filtering, IPS and geo-blocking aligned to ACSC Essential Eight.

24/7 monitoring

Switches, access points and firewalls polled every minute with auto-ticketing.

Documented topology

Live network diagram, IP plan and cabling map kept in your secure portal.

Questions answered

Frequently asked questions

Do we have to replace all our gear?

Usually no. We assess what you have, reconfigure where possible, and only replace gear that is end-of-life or unsupported.

Can you work with our current internet provider?

Yes. We coordinate with NBN, Telstra, Aussie Broadband, Macquarie and any business ISP. We can also bring in our own carrier-grade circuits if you want one bill.
