Commscope builds Latin America’s largest RUCKUS® Network for Paraná schools

Paraná is one of the most developed states in Brazil. The state government has fully embraced the digital learning potential for its 2.000 public escolas públicas, offering programs such as EduTech, an initiative that promotes student learning in software development. The initiative includes classes in English, robotics, writing and gamified mathematics. To take full advantage of digital learning, however, the networks connecting these schools needed a significant upgrade.

State authorities wanted to invest in a technology infrastructure with high-quality connections to all public schools. The scope was challenging, when completed it would be the largest network based on RUCKUS NETWORKS equipment in Latin America. The government of Paraná selected CommScope's RUCKUS Wi-Fi portfolio based on the company's extensive experience in government and educational deployments. The network size was the main challenge as it needed to support around 600.000 concurrent users. To facilitate the deployment the Paraná government relied on Seger Technology, a RUCKUS partner company specialized in solution design and certified technical consultancy.
