Wi-Fi for a campus

How to cover lecture halls, libraries, dormitories and walkways on one network, with students bringing their own devices.

What the site needs

Lecture halls put a large number of devices in one room for an hour, then empty.
Students bring several personal devices each and need a simple way to register them.
Coverage has to continue between buildings, not only inside them.

Wi-Fi 7

The fullest rooms get tri-band capacity; outdoor units link the buildings.

Wi-Fi 6

Steady everyday use across many rooms, at a lower cost per room.

Ceiling access points are placed for capacity in lecture halls and libraries, and for coverage in dormitories.

IP67 outdoor units cover walkways, courtyards and sports areas.

Newbridge IAM registers students and their devices through a captive portal, with staff on a separate network.

NX switches power the access points over PoE, and IP surveillance shares the same segmented network.
