WAN Installation Services in Kenya — Wavelink Networks LTD
While LANs connect a single location, the Wide Area Network (WAN) connects your locations to each other and to the world — branches to headquarters, clinics to the main hospital, county offices to the data centre, and every site to the internet. Designing and installing WANs in Kenya requires special expertise: long distances, varied terrain, multiple service providers, and the need for reliability where leased lines are unavailable. Wavelink Networks LTD provides professional WAN installation services across Nairobi and Kenya, building links that hold organizations together.
What WAN Installation Involves
A WAN installation connects geographically separate sites into one functioning network. Our WAN services cover:
- Site-to-site connectivity — fiber, wireless, or hybrid links between locations
- VPN and SD-WAN configuration — secure connectivity over internet links
- Router and edge device installation — routing, firewalls, and traffic management
- Multiprotocol routing — proper routing design across all sites
- Redundant links — primary and backup paths for business continuity
- Traffic prioritization — QoS so voice and business systems always perform
- Monitoring and management — visibility across every link in the WAN
A WAN is your organization's nervous system. When the WAN fails, sites are isolated: branches cannot reach core systems, hospitals lose records access, and productivity stops. Professional WAN design treats every link as business-critical.
WAN Options Available in Kenya
| Technology | Best For | Considerations |
|---|---|---|
| Dedicated fiber / leased line | High-reliability inter-site links | Highest cost, best performance |
| Internet + Site-to-site VPN | Cost-effective branch connectivity | Depends on internet quality at each site |
| SD-WAN over multiple links | Branches needing reliability and value | Bonded/managed links with failover |
| Point-to-point wireless | Nearby sites with clear line of sight | Fast deployment, no recurring link cost |
| Microwave radio links | Rural or fiber-less areas | Requires licensing and line of sight |
Our WAN Installation Process

- Connectivity survey — verifying available services and line-of-sight where wireless applies
- Design — routing plan, IP addressing, security, and redundancy
- Procurement and delivery — routers, links, and licensed equipment
- Installation — equipment deployment at every site, configured and secured
- Testing — failover tests, throughput verification, and security validation
- Handover & support — documentation, monitoring setup, and ongoing management
