Teaching education how to do smarter wireless
Smart schools improve learning with intelligent wireless networking. Mobility is the new norm so faculty and students expect to connect without wires. They depend on it to support students in a mobile world, schools must fully integrate wireless into their connectivity strategy.
When we grow wireless user density in classrooms, teachers can engage connected students in new ways and enhance learning. When we provide more reliable wireless access with fewer devices school-wide, cost of wireless implementation and management is reduced. And when we deliver flawless wireless access in busy libraries and study halls, student satisfaction rises. Wireless isn’t a 'nice-to-have' anymore. If installed right, it’s a strategic IT infrastructure advantage that accelerates learning and lets schools do more than ever before.
Ruckus solutions were developed from the ground up for a wireless world and designed to deliver wired-like performance. And Ruckus solutions support the unique requirements of school environments, particularly in terms of device density, traffic capacity and the ability to scale on demand. Their innovative, patented technology integrates multiple components into a single device. This helps provide uncompromised access to sophisticated applications and services (multimedia, mobile, cloud-based, etc.) school-wide.
With REAL's High Performance Wireless Network solutions, you can:
- Meet and exceed the bandwidth expectations of students and faculty.

Smart schools improve learning with intelligent wireless networking.
Mobility is the new norm. Faculty and students expect to connect without wires. They depend on it. The influx of smartphones and tablets has seen to that. According to the WiFi Alliance, there are now about 800 million WiFi enabled devices produced every year. The days of a predominantly wired IT architecture are gone. To support students in a mobile world, schools must fully integrate wireless into their connectivity strategy.
At REAL Solutions Technologies, we see why. When we grow wireless user density in classrooms, teachers can engage connected students in new ways and enhance learning. When we provide more reliable wireless access with fewer devices school-wide, cost of wireless implementation and management is reduced. And when we deliver flawless wireless access in busy libraries and study halls, student satisfaction rises.
Because of the high density and mobile nature of its users, education is at the forefront of the wireless evolution. Classrooms are now highly dependent on digital resources and the instructional applications they enable. In the primary and secondary school space, there is a drive toward the 21st century (or digital) classroom. Many schools are embracing next generation technologies and programs that expand learning options, such as "1 to 1" laptop-to-student and bring your own device (BYOD) initiatives. These initiatives create demands on existing WiFi infrastructures that can increase by a factor of 10 in a single school year. A high-performance, reliable wireless solution is imperative.
Mobilize Campus Life
Mobility is key when it comes to campus life. In this high-density environment every student, teacher and faculty member needs their unique devices to work on a WiFi network that can power them through endless lectures and all-night study sessions. But one size does not fit every institution. That’s why REAL offers an adaptable suite of solutions that supports all of the latest and greatest gadgets, today and into the future.
Ruckus is the only WiFi vendor that offers you:
- Most flexible solutions — from dorms to auditoriums to outdoors.
- Highest density and capacity wireless solutions to meet every need.
- Lowest total cost of ownership, with up to 75% less equipment required.
- Future proof solutions — upgrade without replacing access points.
Ruckus Delivers Scalable and Affordable WiFi for Campuses
Higher education institutions have long been on the leading edge of wireless usage, and along with it, dealing with the challenges of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD). Students are early adopters of technology – and all the devices in the Internet of Things (IoT) quickly find their way into dorms and classrooms.
Colleges and universities rely on these devices to deliver education content as well as distance learning. Technology such as Moodle, Blackboard, and other Learning Management Systems are fundamental for student engagement. Using this technology is essential for collaboration on both educational projects and university research.
Being competitive in the higher education marketplace requires a fully functioning WiFi network. Colleges and universities cannot limit device proliferation—they must embrace it. While some enterprises have pushed broad WiFi upgrades off into the future, this is not an option in higher education.
College and university IT administrators must address how they will support increasing device growth. They must provide continuous and contiguous access to an unlimited number of devices, verify availability of educational applications, and work with limited financial and technical resources.
