• The different types of networking equipment that comes with the eKit solution;
• The software support Huawei provides to make network configuration easier for engineers using the eKit;
• The advantages of purchasing a homogenous solution from the same brand in making network configuration easier for installers; and
• Tools for managing the software-defined networks deployed using the eKit as customer need evolve over time.
This insightful conversation is not to be missed, especially for SMEs looking for networking solutions and the vendors who install them.
