21st Century Learning: Bringing Connectivity to Campuses
PowerCloud Systems developed the industry's first Wi-Fi solution built for the management needs and limited budgets of the K-12 education sector. By leveraging the CloudCommand platform, school administrators gain the coverage they want and the control they need for a fraction of a traditional enterprise system's cost.
It's an ideal solution for K-12 school districts as well as individual schools. Administrators deliver a digital environment to meet surging demand for mobile connectivity among students. They manage network privileges safely and securely while enhancing the learning experience as well as their operations.
Benefits of CloudCommand for Schools
- Deliver Powerful Coverage across campus in minutes. Self-configuring access points deploy in minutes to provide 802.11n connectivity for up to 300 simultaneously connected users. A private network supports staff while a separate hotspot network provides student connectivity at scheduled times during the day. With reliable coverage available, teachers adopt technology and use the access to enhance lesson plans.
- Control Student Access. The Instant Hotspot allows the administrators to control student Wi-Fi access with options such as limited-time access and bandwidth-limited access. Onboarding can be standardized for the student population or customized on a per- student basis. An automatic scheduler turns the network off when school is out.
- Gain Real-Time Visibility into Every Network at Once.Thanks to remote-management capability and an easy-to-use online dashboard, an IT administrator can simultaneously monitor and manage the networks of all schools in the district without leaving his desk.
- Operate like an Enterprise Environment. Administrators are empowered by business-grade features such as Individual Device Authentication (IDA) for enhanced security, real-time SMS text alerts and network reporting tools to take control of their networking environments.
- Radical Cost Savings. Extremely affordable hardware, efficient network management and the absence of expensive network controllers combine to make TCO radically lower than any comparable solution. CloudCommand-based Wi-Fi enables schools to finally afford the kind of networks they need.
