Wireless Technology Refresh

Project Description

UBIT staff will be replacing our existing Wireless Access Points with top of the line Wi-Fi 6e access points. Each replacement will only take a few minutes and wireless disruption will be minimal, as Wi-Fi clients will move to surrounding access points during the replacement.
