4th Generation wireless seminars

The team at SWOT are proud to announce a series of seminars to discuss the implications of mobile devices on teaching and learning.

We have seen learning delivered to the Desktop PC, Laptop, Netbook and now to the Tablet, a fourth generation learning device. Educational applications have evolved to exploit the advantages of this new hardware but Fourth Generation learning devices have no wired network connection – they need a fourth generation infrastructure to support them.

So Wi-Fi has evolved too. Gartner Group coined the phrase Fourth Generation Wireless LAN to describe Meru’s wireless solution – a new generation of wireless designed to support the new mobile generation of learners. Over 500 education customers in the UK now use Meru for their high density mobile learning requirements

We are pleased to invite you to a seminar where we will discuss how the evolution of devices, applications and usage patterns has driven a requirement beyond the ability of third generation wireless to deliver.

We will examine how Meru’s fourth generation wireless infrastructure copes with the advent of the “two device pupil”, with high density learning, and mass pupil mobility. 

We will show how wireless virtualisation enables the network to scale as user densities and application complexity demands. 

We will explore the security implications and outline security solutions.  Finally we will show some real world implementation examples and run a live demonstration using our multimedia demonstration suite over a Meru Wireless infrastructure

With speakers from Siracom our distribution partner , Meru Networks, a school that has installed Meru , and security specialists Bradford Networks this is a seminar not to be missed.  If you or your team would like to book a seat at any of the UK locations below, please get in touch with us here at SWOT http://www.swotnet.co.uk/contact/
