SPH modernises wireless networks amidst digital transformation efforts

The networks aim to support 4,000 employees daily.

Singapore Press Holdings (SPH) will modernise its wireless networks to support 4,000 employees daily as part of its active digital transformational efforts.

The network modernisation will happen by means of a comprehensive and flexible Wi-Fi coverage for its over 150,000-square metre campus through wireless local area network solutions by Aruba.

It will also create operational efficiencies and bolster security across thousands of users and devices from a single management pane, providing full visibility into the network.

“The pandemic accelerated the agenda to strengthen our technological foundations, so we can improve work quality and streamline processes with an enhanced network infrastructure. Mobility and agility will be key driving forces in the evolving ‘anywhere’ office,” SPH chief technology officer Glen Francis said.

Aruba was selected to help SPH create a better-connected workplace that provides connectivity, speed and security at scale for its employees amidst the need for robust network management.

“In the digital-first reality, new business outcomes and dynamic customer experiences are only possible if there is a secure, automated and intelligent network infrastructure supporting it,” Aruba senior director Justin Chiah said.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
