A better classroom is a click away with the simple, effective Aruba Instant On Wi-Fi
Classrooms in education and training centers are increasingly relying on technology to provide a great learning experience for their students. Rudimentary network equipment not only struggles to keep up, but can also pose security risks. Aruba Instant On devices not only scale to cover the practical networking demands of educational environments, but also provide trusted security features to protect your network and sensitive data.
Students at all levels need reliable access to the internet. Aruba Instant On hardware helps provide access to the internet. In educational environments, Instant On AP15, AP17, and AP22 access points provide critical wireless Wi-Fi coverage for laptops, iPads, and other smart devices that travel with students. Meanwhile, the Instant On 1960 series network switches can provide a wired backbone for your computer lab’s network of PCs and security infrastructure, offering simple management and robust perimeter options, all in one place.
Indoors, a combination of AP15 and AP22 access points cover classrooms and study lounges with a reliable, high-speed Wi-Fi signal. Whether students simply need access to class reading, homework, or video collaboration online, these access points provide the bandwidth they need. And even in large classrooms, devices like the AP22 can support many connected devices at once.
When students want some fresh air, they don’t have to struggle with less reliable Wi-Fi connections than on campus. The Instant On AP17 outdoor access point seamlessly extends your network into outdoor spaces. The AP17 is built into a weatherproof housing, so you can use it in rain or shine. With smart mesh networking, every access point appears to the student as one network for her, so you won’t struggle to connect as you move from class to class.
From initial setup to future expansion, Aruba hardware makes it easy to build a robust network. Each access point connects to your network with a single cable and can send data and receive power over a Power over Ethernet connection. This links to an Aruba Instant On 1960 switch that can support 24-48 individual access points. Stackable, up to four switches can be combined to create a truly scalable network.
Keeping your network up and running is easy with the Aruba Instant On app or web portal. They provide remote network management tools to quickly troubleshoot problems or identify devices that are hogging too much bandwidth. It simplifies management so you don’t need a large IT department to keep the system up and running. Security is also at the forefront, with many built-in tools to make your network more secure.
