Communications Solutions For
K-12 Education
|
STI
Networks K-12 education solutions provide
voice over IP that allows schools to have telephones
with messaging capability in every classroom, giving
teachers increased security and the ability to leave
important information such as homework assignments
for students. Combining voice and data onto one
network allows schools to reduce operating costs and
extend new capabilities to classroom. Through tools
such as e-learning, wireless access and speech
recognition, K-12 schools are given the tools to
create an information-rich learning environment for
students and staff alike. From an operational perspective, school boards can
consolidate voice, data and video traffic across the
LAN/WAN to allow for shared resources and improved
ease of communications between schools.
Additionally, through an IP environment, staff can
be given enhanced in-building mobility coupled with
high levels of safety and security through digital
video recording solutions. Migrating your
voice and data services onto one shared network is a
great way to contain expenses and provide
communication and data services to everyone who
needs them, regardless of where they are located.
Engineered the right way, your converged network
will have more available bandwidth, and allow your
school to operate more efficiently than can be done
with separate voice and data networks. It also
provides a solid foundation for future network
growth. |

IP-based Security Solutions
Low-maintenance networked digital video storage solutions can cost-effectively
replace traditional analog VCR systems. These solutions offer schools the double
advantage of sophisticated video storage and retrieval capabilities reducing the
time to find stored video compared to traditional searching through hours of VCR
tapes plus the ability to have multiple users view video in real-time for video
monitoring applications via secure intranet.
Keep
Staff Focused on Teaching Results
Let STI Networks show you how to shift the focus away from costly on-site
maintenance and upkeep of desktop computers to integrated server-based
approaches that are reliable, cost effective and easily deployed throughout your
school community.
For schools limited technical staff trying to make the most of often aging
desktop technology, a network-based computing model has enormous benefits.
Server-based computing provides teachers and students with the genuine look and
feel of personal computers while providing added reliability, security and
durability at a lower cost. Computing uptime enables teachers and students to
spend more time on teaching and learning.
Benefits include:
-
Easier maintenance and increased reliability and
security. Server-based computing can extend the lifespan of even modestly
equipped older computers, providing anytime, anywhere access to both students
and staff.
-
Server-based computing offers significant ROI.
Organizations can save over 50 percent of their system administration costs
over five years with a server-based solution versus a traditional computing
approach.
-
Ease of use
makes computing attractive even to older and less technically aware staff.
Students and teachers simply don't need complex, expensive PCs to access the
Internet or handle basic day-to-day computing.
