Case Study: Frederick County Public Schools achieves scalable, reliable network performance with Data Networks and Juniper

Frederick County Public Schools connects 66 sites with Data Networks and Juniper

Frederick County Public Schools (FCPS) faced a challenge as its legacy network struggled to support digital learning, state-mandated online assessments, and a growing 1:1 device initiative for its 42,000 students. Partnering with vendor Data Networks, FCPS sought a new Juniper networking solution to increase scalability, performance, and simplify operations for its small IT team.

Data Networks implemented a Juniper Networks WAN and data center solution featuring QFX5100, EX4300, and EX4600 switches. This provided a scalable, reliable foundation that seamlessly supports over 24,000 student devices and daily cloud application access. The solution dramatically improved network performance, enabled a small team to manage 66 school sites efficiently, and ensured uninterrupted learning and administrative operations.
