Maintaining secure, seamless access to software, applications, files, and tools that live on a company’s network is vital for remote workers. Black Box has the expertise to design, deploy, and manage your remote connectivity system.

Exceptional Customer Stories
With people and businesses around the globe facing unprecedented challenges, Black Box wants to shine a light on the exceptional ways our team is helping our clients.
Install Critical Phone System in 48 Hours
A national elder-care home in Tennessee experienced a communications crisis during the COVID-19 pandemic. The facility’s aging phone system completely stopped working and left clinicians, administration, and patients with no service. This was a critical communication failure, especially as families could not contact their loved ones by phone. Black Box received the call for help on a Thursday. By Saturday, the facility had a modern communications system installed and by Sunday 100 percent of the phones were operational.
Remote Work for 100 COVID-19 Engineers
A large pharmaceutical company had been working round the clock to produce COVID-19 tests. The company produced two million tests in just three weeks. But as the pandemic worsened and spread, the company had to enable remote working for one hundred of its engineers. They called Black Box. We were able to implement a home-agent solution and reprogram their UC from a premise-based model to a remote model.
2,000 Mobile Devices in 2 Days
In preparation for COVID-19 cases, a major healthcare system with three hospitals and 400 plus clinics was setting up triage tents in the parking lots of its hospitals. The Director of Telecommunications called Black Box and placed an expedited order of 2,000 mobile communications systems, including licenses, for its workers at the three hospitals. They requested that the materials be shipped immediately. The Black Box team powered through the request, and all the communications sets arrived at the three hospitals two business days after the request came in.
Special Savings and Offers
Whether you’re in a large enterprise, a small business, or somewhere in between, you want to enable remote working in the most effective way while keeping safety at the forefront. We are committed to helping you ensure business continuity even when things aren’t “business as usual.” When work moves into the home, a lot of communications tools get left in the office.
