Real life example: Queen Mary University of London
Queen Mary University of London worked with Block to refresh wireless network infrastructure with Wi-Fi 6E, Juniper Mist AI™, and 2,200 access points across 65 building. The critical work took place in a small eight week window during the summer holidays in time for the new school year.
The results
- Troubleshooting is twice as fast with Marvis, HPE Juniper’s Virtual Network Assistant.
- 1000+ devices can now connect across high density lecture halls without issue.
- 10+ labs are supported with highly secure connectivity.
- 1500+ student rooms and dorms have home-from-home connectivity.
- The network has 99% compatibility with personal devices including games, consoles, and smart TVs.
- Complaints to the help desk have vastly decreased from having better Wi-Fi.
“Block’s commitment to understanding and addressing our unique challenges turned a daunting project into a seamless operation. This sets a benchmark for how external partnerships should function.”
