NATIONAL TAICHUNG TEACHER'S COLLEGE

The Challenge:

The National Taichung Teacher's College in central Taiwan is the country's leading institution for the training and preparation of primary education instructors for students in kindergarten through grade 6. Founded in 1923, the 57,000-square meter campus has upgraded its facilities to meet its expanding student population, but high-bandwidth connectivity remains an ever-present need. The campus required network connectivity for a student dormitory just 200 meters off the main fiber backbone.

LightPointe Solution:

LightPointe's optical wireless solution delivers the perfect balance of bandwidth and price, so the college can focus on teaching students instead of trenching fiber. The FlightLite™ 155/500 is an excellent answer for shorter distance connectivity in Enterprise networks that require optical bandwidth between two buildings with no disruption to streets or the surrounding environment.

LightPointe's optical wireless products are now at work in more than 60 countries, in 2,000-plus installations.

Sound Byte:

"The fiber shortage issue here had troubled me for months and it is apparently due to the fact that the local Service Provider cannot deliver high-bandwidth services in a dense urban area where our college is located. The FlightLite 155/500 is a 'just-in-time,' license-free, optical wireless solution that does not involve a long deployment or construction time. It is also a pollution-free media that fits well in a health-conscious setting and solves my immediate task of linking the newly constructed dormitory with the existing campus."
