Allied Telesis, a global leader in secure, high-performance networking for enterprise and industrial applications, will showcase its award-winning Unified Management Platform for the retail technology community at NRF Europe 2026. The company will reveal how reliable network infrastructure can help retailers build smarter, more connected and future-ready stores.

NRF Europe brings together retailers and technology leaders at a time when the role of the store network is changing rapidly. Connected devices, cloud applications, artificial intelligence, digital services, AI-powered “smart mirrors” in dressing rooms, and increasingly data-driven operations are creating new demands on the infrastructure that supports the modern retail environment.

As retailers continue to embrace AI and connected technologies, network infrastructure is becoming an increasingly strategic part of the retail environment. It’s estimated that network infrastructure failures are the root cause for 53 percent of all point-of-sale system downtime, which costs the average retailer around $4,700 per minute (on Black Friday that leaps to $9,000 per minute).

Allied Telesis is helping retailers prepare for this evolution with secure, scalable and manageable networking solutions designed around the demands of modern stores.

At Booth G-067, Allied Telesis will demonstrate how its Unified Management Platform delivers the visibility, automation, and AI-driven insights needed to operate secure and resilient digital environments, seamlessly integrating wired and wireless infrastructure.
