BT and HPE Join Forces to Enhance Global LAN Services

Following the identification phase, BT will focus on securing and safeguarding connected devices. The company will offer a unified, cloud-hosted dashboard that enables organizations to generate reports, analyze data, monitor security, and ensure scalability and resilience. The dashboard will also assist in identifying redundant devices that consume excess power, facilitating network and energy optimization.

BT emphasizes the importance of this LAN approach in the current “new normal” work environment. Legacy LANs often struggle to meet the demands of hybrid workers, particularly in terms of accessing applications and bandwidth-intensive video collaboration tools. Additionally, the growing number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices connecting to networks challenges reliability and consistency.
