The Affinity Blue process

From uncertainty to network confidence.

A specialist process that turns complexity into clarity, challenge into better decisions, and delivery into long-term performance. Four steps. No shortcuts.

  1. Discover

    We get under the skin of your environment, risks, needs and capability gaps.

    • Understand where you are now and where you’re going
    • Assess the environment, requirements and risks
    • Clarify what is really needed, beyond the initial brief
    Surveys and audits
  2. Challenge

    We test the brief, challenge assumptions and define the right path, not the easiest one.

    • Question why, and test assumptions
    • Simplify by removing what doesn’t need to be there
    • Recommend the right approach, stated plainly
    Network design
  3. Deliver

    We design, deploy and commission the solution, and support a confident go-live.

    • Design a practical, secure solution
    • Deploy to the agreed scope, with one team accountable
    • Commission on site and support the go-live
    Supply and install
  4. Support

    We hand over properly, then monitor, support and manage your network so it keeps running the way it should.

Frequently Asked Questions

View All
What is a Wireless Survey, and why do I need one?

A wireless survey is the first step when deploying a wireless network.  These surveys are conducted to understand the behaviour of RF signals in your building or structure, what it is made with, the layout of fixtures and fittings, and possible sources of interference. With this information, we can complete an analysis to determine the ideal placement of wireless access points and antennas.

What exactly is SD-WAN?

SD-WAN is a way of delivering secure connectivity to remote/branch offices using a combination of hardware, software and cloud‐based services compared to the traditional MPLS based network.

Can 802.1x solutions, such as Aruba Clearpass, integrate with other systems?

Most 802.1x solutions have some degree of integration with other security solutions. Clearpass, for example, integrates with dozens of non-Aruba products and solutions. Integrating Clearpass with other vendors in your network allows you to use this amazing product to its fullest potential.
