Question:
Due to the growing demand for connectivity, in addition to the standard wired network, a need has arisen for a suitable wireless network throughout the complete educational institution.

Approach:
In order to ensure that the network can last for a long time, a Wireless Site Survey has been scheduled as a first startingpoint. This immediately made clear what the expected sources of interference and other obstacles would be.

Solution:
After the complete set of requirements was defined (across all disciples) the Wireless Site Survey brought all the technical details that need to be considered. From the plan combined with the outcome of the survey, we discussed the best matching hardware options. The choice for Aerohive was made based on their flexible and controllerless advantages. The installation was planned in close coorporation with the local systems engineers. After completing the implementation the IT staff was trained by our trainer, to be able to work with the newly delivered infrastructure.
