There is no doubt about it, educational institutions and businesses are completely reliant on their wireless network solutions. Everything that takes place within a school or business today can seemingly be traced back to their integrative network solution. From security systems to data storage and wireless connectivity, you simply can’t provide the safety and tools that your students need without proper wireless networks in place.

WAN (Wide Area Network)
WANs are responsible for any long-distance connections. It is essentially a combination of multiple LANs or Local Area Networks. A WAN is ideal for schools and businesses that have more than one location. WANs allow for an integrated network in between any two or more locations - this can be anywhere from across town from one another to on a different continent and allows for efficient data sharing through the cloud and the syncing of SaaS applications.
LAN (Local Area Network)
LANs are the smaller components that make up a WAN. This style of network is designated to a specific location such as those found on school campuses and office buildings. LANs allow for the secure transfer of data through cloud and SaaS applications over a localized integrated network.

DAS (Distributed Antenna System)
Schools and business buildings are made to withstand heavy traffic and are generally constructed from durable materials such as concrete and steel. While these buildings look nice and are as structurally sound as it gets, they generally lead to a severely weakened or non-existent cellular connection to those inside.
Cell phones have become one of the most important tools in our day-to-day lives and weakened connections can be a major downfall to students and visitors. DAS systems serve to bolster the cellular service inside a building that would otherwise have a weak service connection. It does this by transferring the outside signal to a signal amplifier inside the building, the amplifier then sends the signal through a series of coax cables leading to strategically placed splitters. This allows for a strong and consistent cellular connection wherever it is needed most. Learn more about DAS and why you should care about it here.
RDU (Rapid Deployment Unit)
An RDU is a temporary network solution that is generally used in disaster zones around the globe. It is powered through an onboard generator and has a compact 4x4 footprint and can easily be relocated by rolling or using a forklift.
Access Points and WiFi
As campuses become increasingly connected so too does the importance of having sufficient access points and WiFi connectivity. This is the single most important component of an integrated smart campus solution. With the widespread popularity of online digital learning, schools are requiring more and more bandwidth and you need to make sure that your school has sufficient bandwidth to handle the increase in the amount needed.
