Case Study: Ranger College achieves reliable campus connectivity with Adtran ProCloud Plus

Ranger College Advances Digital Learning Environment with ADTRAN

Ranger College, a public community college in Texas, faced significant network connectivity issues across its 16-building campus. Its mixed-vendor access points were unreliable and difficult to manage, leading to numerous help desk calls from students and staff about slow and failing internet. The college needed a robust and easily managed solution to provide reliable connectivity. They turned to Adtran and implemented their ProCloud Plus cloud managed wired and wireless network services.

By deploying a uniform network of Adtran switches and access points, the college solved its connectivity problems. The Adtran solution provided a complete, real-time view of the entire network, enabling quick troubleshooting. The results were significant, with the IT director reporting a 90% reduction in help desk calls per week. Adtran's managed services also offloaded network management from the college's IT staff, allowing them to focus on other digital learning initiatives and providing reliable connectivity across the entire campus.
