At this time, the most notable impact of COVID-19 in the sector is the disruption of supply chains and critical global shortages of Apple devices, and a shortage of other mobile devices, especially mobile WiFi hotspot devices.
MobileCorp Head of Managed Services, Peter Jonson, said there has been strong demand from customers for mobile WiFi devices.
"All of the telco's are experiencing critical shortages of iPhones and there are a huge number of back orders with no ETA on fulfilment.
"There is also a growing shortage of mobile WiFi devices, but we are still supplying customers with solutions like the Netgear Nighthawk and the Telstra 4G WiFi Pro, which are both ideal for home office connectivity."
MobileCorp is working with two customers to upgrade their private network access and bandwidth as they move to protect business continuity and accommodate unprecedented numbers of employees working from home.
Utilising the Telstra Programmable Network, an organisation can quickly deliver secure, flexible and on-demand connectivity. Being a virtual network service there is minimal upfront cost and the solution can be 'held ready' to activate, says MobileCorp Solutions Architect, Peter Pouw.
"The beauty of Telstra Programmable Network is that it is able to be conceptualised, procured and implemented within days, whereas alternative network technologies would traditionally take weeks or months. It is the fastest network tool that Telstra has.
"The solution is also able to be prepared and 'held ready' to be provisioned if required. With consumption-based pricing, organisations only pay for what they use, and can also choose a duration from one day to one week, month or year."
