You know that moment when the alerts start flooding in, and your entire network goes dark? Systems down. Phones silent. Operations frozen. Now imagine that happening inside a prison. Six hundred of them. One outage away from chaos.

In this conversation, Max Clark sits down with Oliver Maxwell from aPXnet, who had to build a network that literally keeps the peace. They get into what happens when multi-carrier complexity meets mission-critical uptime, how “better internet” became a safety system, and the hard lessons from running connectivity in places most carriers won’t touch.

Here’s the uncomfortable truth: the problems you’re managing today might not cause riots but they could still cost you everything when the network fails.

⚡ Don’t scroll past this one — the next outage you prevent might be your own.
