Announcing Wi-Tek Cloud Management
|
|
Free, Optional.
Compare with UniFi Switch Management
If you have ever used a UniFi Managed switch, you understand how easy it is to configure the device using a UniFi Controller, or the newer UniFi Consoles. And you will probably be aware that you can remotely manage the device via a free account at https://unifi.ui.com.
Wi-Tek switches now support that functionality, and more.

Why buy through us?
Here at UBWH Australia, we have been working hard to improve our service offering to you, our customers. In doing so, we are excited to highlight a few of our advantages:
1. Authorised Ubiquiti RMA Centre for Australia. We have worked closely with Ubiquiti USA to set this up. When you lodge warranties with us and send the faulty item back, we send you a new one from our stock. No more lengthy turn around times. View the new RMA form here.
2. Same Day Dispatch. Our new warehouse will dispatch orders the same day in 98% of cases, for orders paid before 12.30pm AEST and shipped by Australia Post. Occasionally, large orders will cause a delay until the next business day.
If critical, please contact us prior to ordering. We will update you on the days proceedings and will endeavor to have your paid order dispatched same day.
3. Extended Warranties on everything we sell. Optional 2 and 3 year warranties are in addition to the normal Manufacturer's Warranty, plus the Consumer Guarantee required by Australian Consumer Law (ACL) for all Australian Consumers, at a small cost. These can be selected during the checkout process at http://ubwh.com.au
4. Pre and Post Sales Support. As a customer of ours, you have access to our high standard of pre and post sales support. Whether you need a design checked over, product recommendation or help setting up we can help. Contact us.
5. Credit Card Security
There has been a lot of unfortunate reports lately of high profile hacks into large organisations. Did you know we do NOT store your credit card details on any of our servers - so those details can not be stolen from us.

Story Of The Month
Kentucky Horse Farm
"We are a Thoroughbred breeding farm in Central Kentucky, USA. The primary use of the network is to monitor the horses, and general security, so we are camera heavy (I think there are about 100 of them), with very few users. Secondary is connectivity for the business processes as well as personal connectivity for 6 people who live on the farm (lots of Youtube, netflix, and Amazon Video)."

Online Training
New course: UniFi V7 - Course 1
New course: UniFi V7 - Course 2
In a world's first, Online training (developed in Australia) is now available for the Ubiquiti products shown.
You benefit in a number of ways:
- Cheaper - than attending a formal 2-day course in a classroom environment.
- Faster - no need to wait until the next classroom course is scheduled nearby.
- More convenient - the self-paced courses can be scheduled around other demanding work.
- More practical - the Ubiquiti classroom courses are great for students needing to delve deep into theory such as Radio Waves, Antenna design, TDMA protocols, Link-Budgets, UniFi-WiFi site surveys, etc. But in many cases, students just want to know how to setup some very common scenarios. These Installer courses are targeted with less theory and more practice.
The way each course works is ... each student:
- signs up and receives by email a set of detailed course notes. These can be kept as a reference document for use later on-the-job.
- is allocated real test hardware for 7 days. This is hardware the student gets to configure (over the Internet).
- passes an online quiz for each module. When all module quizzes have been passed, the student gets emailed a Certificate of Completion.
