Episode 08: Student Wi-Fi

Conscia's Wayne Martin and Laura Powell are joined by Tim Ormrod, owner and director of Splash Access, to talk through the ongoing challenges that universities face when providing simple, secure, effective student Wi-Fi. Topics discussed include the complexities of coverage in halls of residence, effectively managing the increasing number of student devices running on university networks, and ensuring that the student onboarding experience is as smooth and simple as they’re used to at home. We also look at how modern network design can enable smart campus technologies that – alongside providing great student Wi-Fi – can also enable additional capabilities that can offset or supplement a tight networking budget.

Episode 05 - Smart Spaces in the Public Sector

Investments in smart building technologies are increasingly being seen as a way to find energy savings within public sector organisations, while continuing to drive critical sustainability goals. With the majority of energy use within businesses stemming from the use of air conditioning, heating, and lighting, automating these services through smart building technologies can deliver substantial savings to an organisation - helping with the initial investment in the technology and beyond. We discuss both the quick, easy wins an organisation can expect to see from investment, as well as the longer term ability to analyse energy consumption and identify further potential savings based on building occupancy and utilisation.
