  Full Version

Industry: Education

Challenges:

  • Address constantly growing bandwidth demand for the schools
  • Enhance bandwidth capacity without compromising existing services and network infrastructure
  • Meet budgetary requirements set by management
  • Locate a technology vendor with experience in the education vertical and with the flexibility to assist with a proof of concept prior to purchasing

Solution:

  • The Elfiq Link LB-1100E provides the ability to manage up to four ISP links concurrently, meeting current and future requirements
  • To complement the existing 10Mbps symmetrical link, a cable modem was added to meet demand
  • Elfiq Networks’ professional services were utilized to deploy the project

Benefits:

  • Elfiq Networks provided an “out of the box” experience which was successful without costly infrastructure migrations or prolonged downtime and came in under budget
  • The increased available bandwidth enables faster Internet access for the school district’s users
  • Elfiq’s professional services team provided a complete turnkey implementation remotely, thus minimizing costs
  • The LB-1100E will meet future requirements and enable future bandwidth additions
     
"The Elfiq Link Balancer was one of the most cost effective and beneficial units to meet the unique needs of our school district. From the pre-sales to the post-sales experience, we could not be more ecstatic with the service and product support we have received. Elfiq devices work exactly as advertised, right out of the box; this is the true meaning of "plug and play"."
