Learn how to design and deploy high-density, enterprise-grade WiFi infrastructure for schools where every student and staff member has a dedicated device. This session covers the key requirements for 1:1 networks including WiFi 6/6E adoption, high-density access point planning, VLAN segmentation for separating student, staff and IoT traffic, and unified SSID configuration for seamless roaming. We will explore recommended technologies such as Ubiquiti UniFi, Aruba Instant On, and Cisco Meraki access points, plus authentication strategies like Private Pre-Shared Keys (PPSK) and 802.1x. You will leave with a practical checklist for planning reliable, cloud-ready connectivity across your entire site.

About James Saniger

I've spent thirty years building infrastructure that has to work — from statewide ISP networks to K-12 districts. I specialize in network architecture, firewall, virtualization, disaster recovery, and phone systems. When the network is invisible, teachers teach, and students learn. That's the whole job.
