Better Digital Offering through New School Network

Many schools are setting out to introduce new methods for imparting knowledge. Digital media play a key role for the new interactive formats. The new network of the Oberpleis School Center in Königswinter is a future-proof platform for rolling introduction of digital services that open up completely new educational opportunities for schools. In future, new media such as digital whiteboards and touch panels can be used in lessons and in organization of activities in schools. 

The expandable VoIP telephone system offers its users a wealth of potential additional functions. In addition, the telephone system has support from the manufacturer. Problems can be solved even faster by remote access. Travel times for technicians are significantly reduced.

The harmonized infrastructure with its new technical foundation can now be administered with much less effort – the console provides clear information about the status of the individual components: defective elements are identified and replaced more quickly. 

The new school network also offers a host of other options for the future development of services on the school campus. Clubs using the premises can also access network resources easily and securely. The simplified administration makes it all possible. And this is by no means the end of the road: “We have set a new standard with the network that can be scaled effortlessly with an increasing number of end devices and users,” said Frank Laska, the T-Systems Project Manager. Sales manager Gerald Renner adds “The rollout to other schools in Königswinter is already planned. They, too, should be given the opportunity to use new options for digitalization in education.” The central server room and the new, modern security architecture form the basis for this: step by step, the nine other school locations are going to link up with this central platform and benefit from the advances made.
