At a glance

For decision-makers short on time.

  • 01Tills and card terminals on their own VLAN, separate from customer Wi-Fi.
  • 02IP cameras on a dedicated network, ready for PoE.
  • 03Chains and franchises on one standard across every store, managed centrally.
  • 04Ongoing management under IT Unlimited, from €395/month + VAT.

In a shop or a restaurant, a network that fails at peak time stops the till, blocks payments and sends the customer away. DataRoad, one of the reference names in Portugal for managed business networks, separates payments, operations, customer Wi-Fi and cameras on the same infrastructure and takes responsibility for managing it, with a common standard for chains with several sites.

We design, install and manage networks for retail and hospitality in Lisbon, from our headquarters in Alfragide and with support across the whole country. Payment traffic is kept apart from public traffic, and every new store opens with the same configuration as the ones before it.

Which networks must be separated inside a store?

NetworkPurposeHow we handle it
POS and card terminalsTills and paymentsDedicated, stable connection on its own VLAN
OperationsBack office, stock and managementInternal network protected by a firewall
Customer Wi-FiPublic accessIsolated guest network, with no access to operations
Video surveillanceIP cameras with recording and remote accessDedicated network, ready for PoE

VLAN separation is what allows payments and public Wi-Fi to run at the same time without one affecting the other. We explain the logic in VLANs and network segmentation in companies.

What is included in the project?

  • Cabling and outlets A clean installation, with sockets where they are needed; cable choice follows the CAT5e, CAT6 or CAT6A guide.
  • Business Wi-Fi Wi-Fi for retail and hospitality, with coverage measured on site.
  • Security from the ground up Segmentation, VLANs and good practice from day one.
  • IP cameras A network ready for video surveillance, to protect the premises and the team.
  • Multi-site Several stores connected to the same standard, with central management.
  • Professional equipment Reliable brands, with warranty.

How do you get from survey to managed network without stopping trade?

  1. Technical visit: measurements and needs analysis on site.
  2. Design and proposal: solution design, materials and a clear quote.
  3. Installation: organised execution, with minimal impact on trading and deadlines met.
  4. Certification and documentation: testing, documentation and warranty.
  5. Ongoing management: maintenance, expansion and support under the IT Unlimited contract, for a fixed monthly fee.

Opening a new site? The installation is planned alongside the fit-out so that everything works on opening day. The method for offices is in how to plan the network for a new space.

Frequently asked questions

Can payments and customer Wi-Fi run at the same time?

Yes, because the traffic is separated by VLAN. Tills and card terminals have a dedicated, stable connection, and customer Wi-Fi is isolated on a guest network with no access to operations. A spike in public use does not affect the speed or the security of payments.

Do you install video surveillance?

Yes. The network is prepared for IP cameras from the design stage, with its own segment and PoE power, and DataRoad supports the installation of video surveillance systems. Cameras are kept separate from the tills and the public Wi-Fi, with recording and controlled remote access.

Do you work with chains and franchises?

Yes. The installation is standardised across stores and management is central, which simplifies support for multiple units. Every new store opens with the same network, security and Wi-Fi configuration as the previous ones, and the support team knows them all.

Can everything be ready before opening?

Yes, as long as the network is planned together with the fit-out and the opening date. Cabling, rack, Wi-Fi and terminals are handled at the right stages of the works, so that tills and payments work on the first day the doors open.

What if the network fails mid-service?

The store is covered by the support contract, with immediate remote support. On-site support is unlimited from the Premium plan upwards; Essential is remote and phone only. Nights, weekends and public holidays are covered only in Premium 365, which matters for restaurants with extended hours.

How much does a managed network cost?

Ongoing management is part of the IT Unlimited contract, with plans from €395 per month + VAT for Essential and from €750 for Premium, with unlimited on-site support. The installation project is quoted after the technical visit, at a fixed price. Annual contract and no lock-in.

Opening or refurbishing a shop or restaurant?

DataRoad takes responsibility for maintaining and managing the installed network, under the IT Unlimited contract. We do not carry out one-off jobs or sell standalone equipment. Request a technical visit and a no-commitment proposal.
