Success Story: Trippas White Group's Connected Payment Solution

How Affinity MSP delivered a nationwide Peplink deployment for Australia's leading catering company

The Challenge

When COVID-19 forced Australia's event industry to close, Trippas White Group - operators of premium venues including Sydney Opera House and Sydney Tower - needed to pivot quickly. They acquired a national catering operation serving schools and offices, but faced two critical challenges:

  • Cost-ineffective connectivity: The incumbent network solution was too expensive for widespread deployment
  • Unreliable connections: Many remote locations lacked reliable fibre connectivity, affecting point-of-sale operations

The Affinity MSP Solution

As Trippas White Group's trusted managed service provider, Affinity MSP designed a comprehensive Peplink-based solution that addressed both cost and reliability concerns:

Hardware Selection

  • Peplink Balance 20X routers: Compact, reliable SD-WAN appliances perfect for retail/catering environments
  • Peplink Mini modems: Integrated 4G connectivity for primary or backup connections
  • Pepwave Antennas: Enhanced signal performance for challenging locations

Connectivity Strategy

  • 4G-enabled SIMs: Optus network coverage for nationwide reliability
  • SpeedFusion bonding: Multiple connections bonded for enhanced performance
  • Dedicated PoS networks: Isolated payment processing for security and performance

Deployment Excellence

  • Pre-configuration: All hardware configured and tested before shipping
  • Plug-and-play setup: Installation completed in hours, not days
  • Rapid rollout: 2-3 sites deployed per day across Australia
