Case Study: Torquay Boys’ Grammar School achieves easier, faster Wi-Fi with Allied Telesis

Torquay Boys’ Grammar School manages 3,000 APs with Allied Telesis

Torquay Boys’ Grammar School, an outstanding secondary school in Devon, England, faced challenges with its aging wireless infrastructure that was no longer supported. The ICT team, led by Systems Manager Kevin Smith, needed a new solution that offered higher capacity for digital learning initiatives, better control, and easier network management capabilities. They partnered with vendor Allied Telesis to find a robust wireless networking solution.

Allied Telesis implemented a new wireless network using their Access Points (APs) managed by the Vista Manager EX platform. This solution provided seamless integration with the school's Active Directory for secure, policy-based access and easy management from a single pane of glass. The result for Torquay Boys’ Grammar School was significantly increased network coverage, capacity, and performance. Allied Telesis delivered these enterprise-grade features in a cost-effective package that prepares the school for future growth.
