Wireless LAN

Trapeze Networks wireless LAN gear has been meticulously installed into
the historic 156-year-old campus of the Institute of Notre Dame (IND), an
all-girls private high school in Baltimore, Maryland. With the final phase of
IND's wireless remodeling complete, the wireless campus now lets students and
faculty access the Internet and online educational sources to better prepare

Trapeze, along with Maryland-based Jaguar Technology, embraced the
challenge and successfully configured the technology to work within a
building constructed with 16-inch thick plaster-and-brick walls, all the
while maintaining the school's architectural integrity. The installation,
which only took two weeks to complete, includes 40 access points and covers
more than 175,000 square feet of building plus additional outdoor areas.

"We are living in a wireless society and we recognized that it has
forever changed the learning environment," said Fred Germano, director of
technology at the Institute of Notre Dame. "To ready our students for college
and beyond, it was essential to equip them with a wireless environment.
Trapeze walks us into the wireless world by providing the best options and
solutions for the technology demands of our school. Trapeze met our challenge
and has outperformed our expectations."

Easy-to-Maintain, Reliable and Secure WLAN

The key to the deployment at IND was the award-winning RingMaster WLAN
management suite that helps design an error-free wireless service. Combined
with the Trapeze MX-200 Mobility Exchange intelligent WLAN controller
platform, the solution gives the school unparalleled remote management and an
enterprise-level of security. By performing a Virtual Site Survey(TM),
RingMaster automated coverage, capacity and voice planning for indoor and
outdoor areas.

"We are now able to integrate technology across the curriculum, creating
a learning environment that is more individualized and tailored to each
student's needs," said Germano. "Our students' education is more engaging and
a more authentic representation of the real world of college, career and
life."
