Magni Telescopic Handlers, with 8 branches and the professionalism of over 600 employees worldwide, produces machines for lifting and moving loads, distributed in 63 countries.
On the occasion of the construction of the new production centre in Castelfranco Emilia (MO), Magni found activated a network and Wi-Fi infrastructure that was efficient and reliable.
Client needs
A network to build, a time to beat
The work immediately proved to be challenging, both due to the tight times and the technological complexity, resulting in the installation of over 180 access switches, over 100 access points and the management of 4 core switches with fully-redundant infrastructure through rings in 10 Gbit/s fibre.
This is all while taking into account the need to integrate the new system with existing infrastructure.
Solution
Fortinet technology at the service of productivity
To meet these needs, Onit Sistemi offered Magni Telescopic Handlers the innovative Fortinet FortiFabric network infrastructure, as a solution capable of offering the necessary flexibility and scalability, with Fortinet switches and access points interconnected through rings in fibre and 10 Gbit/s connections to the 4 core switches.
The Wi-Fi coverage, both internal and external, underwent a careful design process, which made it possible to cover the production area extending over 60,000 square metres
Results obtained
Stability, speed, and security for the future
The implementation of the Onit Sistemi project has brought Magni a series of important results:
- Reliable network infrastructure - the fully-redundant architecture has maximised the reliability of the network infrastructure, ensuring operational continuity even in the most critical situations
- High throughput performance - the Fortinet solution has ensured Magni has a fast and stable connectivity, able to support all business activities
- Traffic security - through Fortinet Fortifabric technologies, an advanced network segmentation has been implemented that guarantees traffic security and protects sensitive company information
- Flexibility and scalability - the proposed solution allows Magni Telescopic Handlers to easily adapt to future business or expansion needs, without compromising operational efficiency.
- Constant monitoring - The Onit Sistemi Network Operations Centre oversees the entire infrastructure, ensuring 24/7 active monitoring, quickly identifying potential problems and resolving them before they can impact daily operations
In conclusion, the collaboration with Onit Sistemi has allowed the client to successfully face the challenges of the project and thus create an advanced, highly-reliable, scalable and flexible network infrastructure.
This infrastructure can adapt to future business needs while maintaining a high degree of performance at all times.
