SSAP in Olaias: a managed business wireless network in a multi-storey building

In a building with several floors, Wi-Fi has to follow people: someone going upstairs for a meeting cannot lose the connection on the stairs, and each floor has its own user density. At the same time, a public body needs to separate the internal network rigorously from the guest network and to control what comes in and goes out.

Enterprise access points

• Coverage Complete, on every floor.
• Density Capacity for many simultaneous users.
• Roaming Optimised for moving around the building without dropouts.
• Separation Distinct internal and guest networks.

PoE switches

• Power The access points are powered through the network cable itself.
• Growth Infrastructure sized for future expansion.
• Stability Optimised data flow.

Security gateway

• Filtering Traffic control.
• Intrusion prevention Detection and blocking of attack attempts.
• Segmentation Reinforced separation between networks.

Remote management

• Central console Remote management of access and devices.
• Alerting Early fault detection.
• Reports Usage and performance documented.
• Monitoring Centralised, with 24/7 cover available on the Premium 365 plan.

DataRoad took responsibility for the maintenance, monitoring and ongoing management of the network. This translates into service availability, stable and secure operation, rapid intervention in the event of an incident and continuous optimisation, with updates whenever they are justified. The networking team supports the network as the institution's needs change.

This is the IT Unlimited model: advanced monitoring, alerting, unlimited remote and on-site support, periodic reports, proactive maintenance and full system management, at a fixed cost.

This project adds to other work DataRoad has done for SSAP and confirms a partnership built project by project. DataRoad thanks the Serviços Sociais da Administração Pública for its renewed trust in our consultancy, technical support, network installation and maintenance, and ongoing management of its IT infrastructure.
