At the core of this partnership lies Ciscos cutting-edge Meraki platform, a network solution that enables Optus to deliver a more efficient, engaging, and agile shopping experience.
Optus stores are an exciting environment for customers to discover a new retailing experience and enjoy state-of-the-art gaming and entertainment, explore health and fitness and home security solutions.

We are committed to powering optimism with options, and the increased network capacity which Meraki brings to Optus stores will provide customers with the opportunity to see and compare more devices than before.
The Cisco partnership enables retail employees to deliver a better shopping experience by allowing transactions and offers anywhere in the store, rather than just from a traditional shop counter.

Optus has partnered with Cisco because we know having the right technology underpins a magical in-store experience for customers.
