Case Study: Trinity-Pawling School achieves flexible, high-performance campus WiFi with NETGEAR

How Trinity-Pawling School is improving campus-life with a better, flexible WiFi Solution

Trinity-Pawling School, an independent college preparatory school for boys, faced significant challenges with its campus WiFi. The school's brick and steel dormitories impeded wireless signals, forcing students to use personal routers which caused management and signal saturation issues. The Director of IT needed a robust, high-bandwidth solution from a vendor like NETGEAR to support both educational projects and student entertainment across the entire campus.

NETGEAR provided a solution using its WAC540 access points and GC752XP switches, which offered the future flexibility of a mesh network. The implementation required half the expected number of access points, saving on costs. The NETGEAR Insight cloud portal enabled simple, centralized management and the supportive engineering team ensured a smooth rollout. The result was a secure, high-performance, and scalable WiFi platform that significantly improved the connectivity experience for the entire school community.
