Case Study: Florida Gulf Coast University achieves a scalable, modern campus network with Extreme Networks

How Florida Gulf Coast University Built a Scalable, Modern Network to Enhance Student Experiences

Florida Gulf Coast University (FGCU) needed to modernize an outdated campus network that was limiting innovation, creating reactive IT operations, and slowing responses to user issues. With more than 16,000 students across an 800-acre campus and housing locations, FGCU turned to Extreme Networks to help transform both its wired and wireless infrastructure.

Extreme Networks implemented Extreme Wireless, Extreme Wired, and ExtremeCloud IQ to deliver proactive monitoring, better visibility, and simpler management across the campus. The result was seamless high-speed connectivity, faster issue resolution before users were impacted, and a scalable, future-ready network that can support FGCU’s ongoing expansion and improve the student experience.
