World First Amateur Networking Project

Networking Engineers have implemented a world first with the introduction of the VK Yaesu System Fusion IMRS Network in Australia.
The network is a first of its kind, carrier grade build for Australia and the world
KernWi-Fi, an NBN Provider based in South Australia has partnered with Australian amateur radio enthusiasts to design and deploy
an enterprise grade, secure IP network for Yaesuâ€Ös Internet linked Multi site Repeater System (IMRS) â€ö bringing carrier class routing,
segmentation and compliance practices to community radio infrastructure.
The initiative is led by Managing Director Phil Kern (VK5PK), working closely with Chris Dimitrijevic (VK3FY),
who first approached KernWi-Fi to explore a robust digital framework for IMRS.
Chris Dimitrijevic connected Phil Kern with Peter Clee (VK8ZZ), who helped shape the technical scope that underpins the rollout.
Full details will be included in the January - February Edition of Amateur Radio Magazine
