The Solution
Ryvers School chose to implement the AP130, which is for ultra-high density environments, powerful enough to provide all the services needed for an enterprise network, and inexpensive enough to deploy for ultra-high capacity networks. The AP130 combines 2×2, 2-stream, 802.11ac WiFi technology and advanced security and device lifecycle management together into a cost-optimised solution that allows you to deploy high speed WiFi into every classroom. Along with Hive Manager Online for cloud-based network management. 26 x AP130’s were deployed in a quick timescale across the school’s three sites and two modular buildings.
“Ryvers Primary School came to Redway Networks with a requirement to replace their legacy wireless infrastructure. The Redway team were very committed from the initial engagement and ensured they walked the school through every stage of the project from the survey, proposal and deployment. Once completed we had great pleasure in receiving the thumbs up to say the solution was a huge success, we also took satisfaction in knowing the school’s wireless needs have been future-proofed for many years” Leigh Hayes, Redway Networks Sales Director.
