LASER-TEC Hosts Seminar “Converged Networks in Enterprise Buildings” - June 27, 2018
The number of wireless devices accessing the internet through Wi-Fi in today’s public access buildings is increasing exponentially. From personal wearable devices, to cell phones, tablets, and building management and video surveillance systems, these devices stress even the most robust network infrastructures. Additionally, public buildings such as schools, hospitals, courthouses, hotels, convention centers etc., must provide signal coverage to emergency first responders. Both large and small businesses are looking for solutions that will provide a smooth and interruption-free communication experience for their customers. A single mode fiber network with a distributed antenna system (DAS) and small cell technology can solve this problem and facilitate the convergence of IT, industrial automation, security, building climate control, and other future networks.
These and other emerging topics were covered at the one-day seminar hosted by LASER-TEC in partnership with PCS Fiber, Corning Optical Communications, Spider Cloud, and Notora at Indian River State College (IRSC) on June 26, 2018. Participants included personnel from construction and building management companies, IT and telecommunications from local utilities, US military testing range engineering, and IRSC staff and faculty. “LASER-TEC provides training for incumbent workers in these emerging technologies at the Fort Pierce campus and also online. This ensures that the current workforce can quickly update its skill-sets to meet the swift changes in these ever-growing fields”, said Dr. Chrys Panayiotou, Principal Investigator of LASER-TEC.
