Why Pay for Cellular Coverage and Wi-Fi?
A Comprehensive Wireless Strategy Includes Wi-Fi and Cellular
All school campuses have Wi-Fi networks – and the bigger the campus, the more individual networks. Wi-Fi makes sense for many applications, but a comprehensive wireless strategy includes Wi-Fi and cellular coverage.
Here are some advantages (over Wi-Fi) to covering your campus with a strong off-air cellular signal:
- More reliable with fewer interruptions
- Less interference and network traffic issues allow you to take advantage of the operator’s macro network
- Users (including parents and visitors) don’t need to log in to various networks as they move across campus
- Access to multiple operator signals in an emergency situation
- Less pressure on internal IT teams
- More secure
Students, Teachers, Staff, and Parents Appreciate Cellular Coverage
Allow the community to focus on education and student well-being
Coordinating transportation and keeping in touch with family, friends, and caregivers help families stay on schedule and know everyone is safe and where they are supposed to be.
Enhancing learning and enriching the classroom experience for students of all ages enable experiences and lessons that cannot come from a static book or lecture.
Sharing school activities with family and friends strengthens ties with the community, which leads to increased engagement with key stakeholders and media as well as more support for resources.
Providing access to modern conveniences while also backing up core administrative and data systems ensure access to the latest technology for work and everyday life.
