One of the first implementations of the Spirit and Trident Technology Solutions range will be at Melbourne’s Loreto Mandeville Hall Toorak, a leading private girl’s school. Spirit will be providing a High-Speed Internet Connection of 1 Gbps to the school to ensure redundancy and connectivity across its campus. The link runs independently and will ensure the school is not impacted by traffic congestion from other Telco’s experiencing stress on their network.

The High-Speed 1Gbps link will ensure the school is well prepared for this unprecedented situation and ensures our teachers can securely access our network, without a compromise on speed or quality of connection. I am very pleased this critical service can be provided reliably and effectively from the Spirit and the Trident teams.”
