IDEAL Networks, a manufacturer of data cable and
network testers, has expanded into Australia, opening
new premises in Melbourne to support its distributors, as
well as data cable installers and network technicians.
The new facility includes a product warehouse, alongside
the customer services and finance departments and the
sales support team.
There is also a training centre, offering distributors and
customers the opportunity to receive expert guidance on
making efficient use of Ideal Networks’ range of data
cable testers, certifiers and network testers.
The site will also ensure that installers and technicians
across the country have access to local support for test,
calibration and warranty repairs.
In addition, a new Ideal Networks website is launching to
make it easier for data cable installers, network
technicians and IT managers in Australia to search for
products and view extensive product information.
The website will feature
full details about the data cable testers, network testers
and telecoms testers available, including animations that
show how customers can troubleshoot more easily and
provide proof of performance to their clients.
Visitors to the website will also be able to benefit from
support resources, such as product manuals, white
papers, application notes, and all the latest news and
social media updates from Ideal.
“This is the first time that Ideal Industries Inc has
invested in premises in Australia,” said Martin Van Os,
group vice-president/general manager for Ideal
Industries Asia Pacific.
