RE: [EXT] [WIRELESS-LAN] Theater wifi - to have or not to have

2019-10-22 Thread Michael Cole
On our campus wireless is always expected every where, whether in theater halls, parking lots, classrooms or outside walking between buildings. The students expectation at times is unrealistic, when it gets to off campus apartments in the neighborhood. Put it in while you’re doing the planning

You'd think this would be pretty straight forward, but with the codes for elevators and life safety you might not be able to get a cable in the wiring bundle for the car. Or if you can, will the cable take the constant bending and unbending... the Aruba airheads talked about 2 different options

We’ve installed a fair amount of outdoor wireless and tried to take advantage of existing mounting points or designed them into new work on Campus. We use a mix of poles that have our emergency phones and cameras, the sides of buildings, or in parking lots installed poles specifically for outdo

Chuck, we're in the exact same situation as you and not only do we use the argument about being the ISP for free public wifi, We use the law enforcement argument and CALEA where we need to know who's on our campus network in case we need to track that down for what they're doing once connected o
