Built for the Demands of Modern School Networks

From high-density classrooms to campus-wide coverage, Omada helps schools deliver secure, reliable connectivity while simplifying management for lean IT teams.

High-Density Wi-Fi 7 Deployment

With up to 12 streams and 1500 concurrent connections, Omada campus APs are designed to support dense school environments with reliable connectivity.

Campus-Wide Wireless Coverage

Omada ceiling mount, wall mount, and outdoor access points, as well as wireless bridges help schools extend reliable Wi-Fi across campuses and hard-to-wire locations.

High Availability for Always-On Learning

Improve network resilience with M-LAG, VRRP, and BFD at the core layers, stacking and dual-image protection on supported switches, and link aggregation and redundant power on supported access points.

High-Power PoE++

Up to 1,440W of PoE++ power capacity supports large-scale deployment of Wi-Fi 7 APs, cameras, phones, and other connected devices.

Multi-Gigabit Performance for Modern Learning

Multi-gigabit access switches support Wi-Fi 7 and bandwidth-intensive digital learning, while 25G/100G backbone links provide the capacity needed for dense campus environments.

Centralized Management for School IT Teams

Manage networks across schools from one pane of glass. Multi-site management, zero-touch provisioning, role-based accounts, reporting, remote troubleshooting, and flexible authentication help lean IT teams operate more efficiently and securely.
