Case Study: City, University of London achieves seamless, future-proof campus connectivity with Extreme Networks

City, University of London Modernizes Wireless for a Superior Campus Experience

City, University of London, a multi-site campus of 24 buildings serving 18,000 students and 2,000 staff, faced an overly complex, error-prone network that lacked scalable capacity and harmed the student experience. To simplify operations and improve satisfaction, the university worked with Extreme Networks, deploying ExtremeCloud™ IQ – Site Engine alongside Extreme Fabric Connect and ExtremeSwitching to modernize its wired and wireless infrastructure.

Extreme Networks’ solution gave City full visibility, advanced analytics and automated management, eliminating downtime and enabling seamless, low-latency access to streaming and educational platforms. The deployment improved operational efficiency—freeing staff time—future-proofed capacity for media-rich learning, and delivered reliable campus-wide connectivity and measurable gains in student experience and network performance.
