Next to pizza and cheap beer, nothing is more essential to the college experience than reliable, fast Wi-Fi. Access to Wi-Fi makes school easier and helps students stay connected. Universities are investing more on access points and circuits than ever before. But how do they ensure they get the most of their bandwidth and deliver secure, consistent Wi-Fi everywhere on campus?
The ElevenOS cloud Wi-Fi platform makes enterprise-grade Wi-Fi management easy across university campuses and student housing. ElevenOS enables students to connect automatically and securely anywhere on campus. Campus IT can centrally manage Wi-FI using real-time analytics to optimize the Wi-Fi experience. With more and more devices coming online, it's important to utilize a cloud platform to manage the rising number of networked devices.
A large university in California recognized they needed a new Wi-Fi solution for their graduate students. Grad student housing had a traditional solution where underlying connectivity was provided by coax internet service requiring a cable modem and wireless router for each apartment. It required students residing in the same apartment to share the same login credentials, and the school’s lean IT staff had to manage account provisioning, technical support and equipment.
Charter Spectrum Enterprise collaborated with Eleven to bring a solution that leverages the university’s existing single sign-on (SSO) capability for a seamless connectivity experience. Download the case study to learn more >>
