ARCHIVE NOW AVAILABLE ON-DEMAND

Increasing Wi-Fi capacity for today’s campus needs
Original Webcast: May 2, 2012

Wireless is no longer a nice-to-have for schools; now it’s a strategic imperative to attract and retain students within a highly-competitive higher education market. What's needed? A Wi-Fi system designed to support streaming multimedia, voice and other latency-sensitive applications. High user density is another critical issue to solve, as well as being cost-effective, simple to deploy yet feature-rich in delivering advanced capabilities such as band steering, user thresholds and airtime fairness.

Join this web seminar to hear a case study from Baruch College and related topics, including:

• Results of a rigorous eight-month WLAN evaluation process and how the students were the ones to select the winner
• How Ruckus' patented adaptive technology mitigates RF interference and high user/device density environments
• How with Ruckus fewer access points can still produce complete wireless coverage supporting streaming multimedia and three or four Wi-Fi enabled devices per student
• How smarter Wi-Fi can drastically reduce user support calls and improve the end user experience
• How central management streamlines deployment, support and troubleshooting and helps the IT Staff enforce the institution's end user compliance
