Case Study: D-Link Brings Affordable, Single Network Wi-Fi Solution to Redeemer University College for Enhanced Internet Access and Reliability

Overview

Redeemer University College is an undergraduate Christian liberal arts and science university committed to academic excellence. Redeemer University College was being hindered by its spotty, unreliable Wi-Fi network that was patched together with random access points and lacked central communication. Faced with tight budget requirements, the school set out to deploy a universal wireless solution that would blanket the 90-acre campus - including academic buildings, student dorms, the auditorium, gymnasium and several outlying structures - under a single network integration. Vanderkolk and his network associate installed one D-Link DWS-3026 control switch and 48 D-Link DWL-3500AP access points during the summer, calling the process "A piece of cake." The total wireless solution offers many benefits to Redeemer both from a student and administrative standpoint.
