Enhancing Educational Connectivity with Buffalo Technology
The Meisei Junior and Senior High School, established in 1898 by the Catholic Maria Association, has recently implemented Buffalo's network equipment, including their Wi-Fi 6 access point, WAPM-AX8R. This initiative is part of the school’s commitment to fostering a 1-to-1 device environment as part of Japan's GIGA school initiative, ensuring that every student has access to a digital learning platform.
Historically, the school utilized mobile networks primarily for tablet-based classes, which placed a financial burden on families due to high communication costs. To address this issue and improve the wireless environment, the school chose to upgrade to Buffalo's state-of-the-art Wi-Fi access points. These devices are particularly robust, designed for multi-device connectivity and featuring advanced capabilities such as roaming support and automatic signal adjustment between access points.
The adoption of Buffalo’s technologies has significantly enhanced stability and speed during wireless usage across various classrooms. Now, students can utilize the internet effectively, freely accessing educational resources without the hindrance of connectivity issues or excessive costs. This upgrade not only lessens the financial burden on families but also encourages the proactive use of tablets in the curriculum.
