Case Study: a privately owned university in Asia Pacific achieves fast, secure campus connectivity with Peplink

a privately owned university in Asia Pacific connects 2000 students with Peplink and cuts ping to under 20ms

A privately owned university in the Asia Pacific region needed to revamp its network infrastructure to support 2000 students and staff. Their challenge was to cost-effectively add a backup connection to their primary fiber line, implement user access controls for different groups, and provide connectivity for new applications like CCTV and IoT, a project their IT team initially thought would be impossible.

Peplink implemented a solution using an SDX router, an SD Switch, a Balance 20X, a MAX BR1 Classic, and AP One access points. The results provided reliable, high-speed connectivity with ping under 20ms and speeds reaching 220Mbps downlink. Peplink's solution enabled user access control via a captive portal and created a secure SpeedFusion VPN tunnel for the CCTV, with LTE failover ensuring uninterrupted service.
