### In this article

For a live streaming platform, an internet outage at the office is not an inconvenience: it is work stopping at the exact moment clients are broadcasting. In 2025, ReStream, the US technology company and a global reference in multi-platform livestreaming, entrusted DataRoad - IT Services and Consulting with a complete overhaul of the **managed business network** at its Cascais office. The solution combines Layer 3 PoE switches, high-density Wi-Fi 6, a next-generation firewall and a satellite backup link with automatic failover, all under ongoing management through IT Unlimited.

## What would a network failure cost this company?

A great deal. ReStream serves more than 2 million users and lets them broadcast simultaneously to Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn, Twitter, Twitch and more than 30 other destinations, with unified chat, custom branding, engagement tools and second-by-second audience metrics. Its clients range from SMEs and creators to enterprises and digital broadcasters.

In an operation like this, the network is a production tool: high data volumes, minimal latency and zero tolerance for carrier failures. Find out more about the platform at [restream.io](https://restream.io/).

## What architecture supports the office?

### Layer 3 switching over certified cabling

- **Enterprise-class Layer 3 PoE switches** Power the access points and route traffic between network segments.
- **Certified points** Every outlet tested and recorded in documentation.
- **Dedicated rack** A tidy installation that simplifies maintenance.
- **Performance headroom** High availability and low latency for heavy traffic.

### Wi-Fi 6 for many simultaneous users

- **No dead zones** Multiple Wi-Fi 6 access points distributed across the space.
- **Cloud console** Central management and uninterrupted monitoring.
- **Separate networks** Segmentation that protects and improves performance.

### Next-generation firewall

Advanced inspection, intrusion prevention (IPS) and fine-grained access control, worthy of a global tech company. Explore [DataRoad's managed firewalls](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/managed-firewall-services-portugal/).

### Satellite link as an alternative route

If the main carrier goes down, the satellite link takes over immediately and the office stays connected. It is the same redundancy principle DataRoad applies in its own data centre.

## What work did DataRoad carry out?

- Installation of Wi-Fi 6 access points, with cloud management and monitoring.
- Installation of a redundant satellite link.
- Installation of Layer 3 PoE switches.
- Configuration and go-live of the business firewall.
- Certification of the entire network.
- Monitoring, alerting and reports under the contract.

As an MSP, DataRoad remains responsible for the network, firewall, Wi-Fi and servers, with a service desk, proactive monitoring and availability reports.
