5 areas in which Aruba Networks can benefit a Higher Education Student

    • 1. Collaboration

    ‘Teamwork makes the dream work’. Allowing students to work together collaboratively and not restricted to working alone due to a poor connection in communal areas. AirMatch the next generation RF optimisation is tuned for noisy and high-density environments. This offers a better wi-fi experience in congested or dense environments such as campus common areas and lecture halls.

    • 2. Communication

    It is important for students to be able to communicate with their friends and family while they are away from home. Unified Communication and Collaboration automatically identifies and prioritises UCC traffic allowing a better user experience for UC tools such as video conferencing.

    • 3. Freedom to work wherever

    Communal Areas of study often means a busy and noisy atmosphere. Being able to have the freedom to work wherever gives the student time to concentrate on their studies without distractions. Aruba offer a range of options to provide seamless coverage indoors, outdoors and off campus.

    • 4. Simplicity

    Being able to simplify everyday tasks like carrying a pile of books to a lecture is extremely beneficial to students on the go. Having eBooks on your mobile device wherever you are is one way of simplifying and making life easier. ClientMatch dynamically optimizes Wi-fi allowing clients to connect their devices to the best Access Points enhancing mobile experience wherever they roam.

    • 5. Mobility

    Giving students the mobility to utilise applications to work smart. Using applications like AirDrop means students can print their work wirelessly from their mobile devices rather than having to log in centrally and potentially be held up in a print queue. AirGroup turns on services like AirPlay and AirPrint for individuals or groups based on their roles, devices and locations. Onboarding your devices couldn’t be simpler.
