WiFi 6 is coming

07 January 2020


IT Services has deployed Wi-Fi 6 in UNNC to give teachers and students a good experience for working and learning.

In recent years, UNNC has introduced the latest technologies such as AR and VR, which makes the abstract knowledge under the traditional mode more intuitive.

At the same time, the rapid development of new teaching technology has also put forward higher requirements for UNNC’s Wi-Fi network. In most cases, VR/AR requires a wireless network bandwidth of more than 50 Mbps and a network delay of less than 20 ms. Therefore, it is imperative for UNNC to upgrade the wireless network in order to provide faster wireless networks and realize immersive teaching and learning.

In addition, some large data majors, such as Computer Science, require a more rapid network environment, and its scientific research direction involves the application of large data such as SAP, Hadoop. They all require a high-speed wireless network to carry mass data transfers. Wi-Fi 6 makes scientific research more efficient.

From the point of view of IT operation, the network of IT Services combined with Cisco DNA solution can realize the integrated management of cable and wireless network, and can reduce the difficulty of network operation and maintenance; Cisco Catalyst 9115 Wi-Fi 6 AP wireless access point combined with Cisco DNA Center, can automate the deployment of wireless network, and help the teachers of school IT department to improve the efficiency of network operation.

Not only Wi-Fi will not be eliminated, but it will also work with 5G to reshape the way business, consumers and the world interaction.
