Challenge:

Today’s college and university campuses can range from a few buildings to hundreds, and often serve populations the size of small cities.  Until recently, each building management function  required a separate network, resulting in a complex and costly environment to operate and maintain.  Institutions of higher education are beginning to deliver all building services over a single, centrally managed campus data network which requires a large data pipe to support. 

In addition, faculty and students are more dependent on computer systems and applications. Even basic email, which began with short text messages, now occupies multiple megabytes of graphics and video. New applications from e-learning to scientific research studies are now exceeding the capacity of most wireless systems on campus.  As new buildings are added, the existing infrastructure cannot support.  

Solution:

The AireBeam^TM Gig-E wireless solutions connect into the secure, resilient, high-speed network backbone running through the core of all buildings on campus.  Rayawave can enable local school districts, universities, and research groups maximize the use of their resources and interconnect various campus buildings at the highest speed and lowest cost.
