Case Study: Edward Waters College achieves seamless campus Wi-Fi and scalable eBook learning with ADTRAN ProCloud

Edward Waters College - Customer Case Study

Edward Waters College, a private institution in Florida, faced significant challenges with its unreliable campus Wi-Fi network. The existing infrastructure could not support the demands of its millennial students and faculty, who heavily relied on personal devices and eBooks, resulting in poor connectivity and spotty coverage across its 31-building campus. The college turned to vendor Adtran and its ProCloud managed wired and wireless services for a solution.

Adtran implemented its ProCloud Plus managed services, deploying new switches and access points to create a robust, seamless Wi-Fi network. This solution provided 24/7 network management and a help desk, reducing the burden on the college's IT staff. The results included seamless mobility across campus, positive student feedback, and the ability to smoothly support a major event with 3,000 attendees. Adtran also provided the vital scalability needed for the college to grow its enrollment.
