Higher Education
As more and more 802.11ac client devices become available, the demand will grow to 
add 802.11ac to networks. This is especially true for higher education, where students, 
who are typically early adopters of the latest gadgets and technology, will be showing 
up on campus with their 802.11ac-enabled laptops, smartphones, and tablets. Their 
desire to connect these devices to the network is one of the reasons that IT directors 
in higher education support the fifth generation of Wi-Fi, 802.11ac, in their networks.
The adoption of 802.11ac clients is not the only reason to deploy 802.11ac in the 
network. Many higher education networks are seeing a dramatic increase in wireless 
network use, including concurrent connections, which in many cases result in the 
need to deploy more access points to handle the bandwidth and connection demand. 
802.11ac will enable campuses to handle the increased demand via a higher data rate, 
wider channels, and more efficient modulation. Higher speeds mean that 802.11ac 
clients can get on and off the network more quickly, leaving more wireless airtime for 
other clients. 802.11ac will provide a relief from the bandwidth demands while also 
making the overall Wi-Fi network more efficient.
K-12 Education
K-12 education has the same needs typical of most organizations. Increased use 
of video in the classroom is creating a need for more bandwidth. A collaborative 
classroom, in which that day’s lesson is streamed via video from across the country or 
the world, is becoming more and more prevalent. The additional use of laptops, tablets, 
and other Wi-Fi-connected devices in the lesson plan is on the rise as well. The ability 
for K-12 IT departments to address these demands with 802.11ac will provide the 
extra bandwidth needed for these and other uses.
