Case Study: Synergy Fiber achieves a Smart Campus delivering reliable, scalable high-performance Wi‑Fi and 30% cost savings with RUCKUS Networks

Largest Student Housing Develops into a Smart Campus with Ruckus Networks

Park West is a 47‑acre luxury student housing community at Texas A&M with 15 buildings and 3,406 beds. Servitas engaged Synergy Fiber to deliver a future‑proof, easy‑to‑manage wired and wireless network that could support thousands of concurrent users, high bandwidth and growing IoT needs while minimizing support tickets and ensuring a great resident experience.

Synergy deployed a Ruckus solution—ICX stackable switches, R610/H510/T301 indoor/outdoor APs and the SmartZone controller—providing redundant, scalable switching, optimized AP placement and centralized management. The integrated network also supports video surveillance and building automation, delivers seamless coverage for 2,000–3,500 daily users, and cut costs by about 30% while providing reliable, high‑performance Wi‑Fi across the campus.
