The Sensoria network extends broadband connectivity outside campus buildings and into all of its open spaces providing continuous access to the Internet, which makes Cal State San Marcos the most connected public campus in San Diego County, as well as one of the most connected in the 23-campus California State University system and part of an emerging trend in the nation.

“We’re ecstatic to be offering our students such unparalleled connectivity for a campus environment. We’re more than pleased with the Sensoria solution, which has exceeded our expectations in nearly every regard,” says Wayne Veres, Dean and CIO, Instructional and Information Technology Services for Cal State San Marcos.

The EnRoute500 dual radio outdoor wireless mesh routers deployed at Cal State San Marcos feature the next generation of Sensoria’s WirelessFabricTM mesh networking platform with an advanced Quality of Service (QoS) framework and support for multiple user classes. The QoS mechanism enables priority to VoIP and other high priority traffic, and fairly distributes network bandwidth to connected clients. These upgrades achieve improved network performance and enable the network operator to designate multiple user classes or subscriber levels to allow for different levels of service such as higher priority to public safety users over public access.

At Cal State San Marcos, the Sensoria network enables faculty and staff seamless access to the same screens and files as their desktop; student users are also granted seamless access to their university accounts and the web; and, finally, guest users can login as with any public hotspot to obtain access to the Web.
