Creating Green, High-Performance Schools

Enhance Education with a Single-Network Solution

Today's schools are complex systems that serve large numbers of mobile students, teachers, administrators, and support staff.

Until recently, each building subsystem from access control to heating and ventilation required a separate network, resulting in a complex, costly environment that was difficult to operate and maintain. But today you can efficiently deliver all building services over a single, converged, centrally managed IP-based network. And this same network forms the backbone of a 21st-century education environment.
