Flexibility meets opportunity

Network solutions enable you to make school facilities more available to students and local community groups while mitigating the student security and safety risks of easy access. They also support stronger relationships between schools and the larger community, and they offer a way for students to showcase their talents, thanks to high quality live streaming of performances, sporting events, competitions, symposia, and instruction. Finally, network solutions can facilitate student self-evaluations and innovative hands-on learning – while complying with student privacy regulations and supporting robust cybersecurity practices.

Focus areas

Meet students where they are

The same access control that secures restricted or high-value areas within a school can make resources like fitness centers, libraries, and computer labs available to students and staff for more hours, or enable authorized community groups to use those spaces without staff members present. The access control system keeps a log of all entries, and you can restrict access to specific rooms and even server cabinets within approved spaces, minimizing risk to valuable assets. Network solutions also make it possible to live-stream lessons or demonstrations, so students who are ill, injured, or otherwise homebound don’t have to fall behind.

Take students further

Network solutions let you take students security beyond traditional classroom scenarios to enable new opportunities. Extend the audience for student accomplishments using live streaming cameras with autotracking of moving people and objects for performances, concerts, sporting events, and more. Or broadcast lectures and symposia to schools around the world, building learning exchanges, while maintaining student privacy. And in secondary and higher education, visual cameras with two-way audio installed at student stations enable a single teacher to remotely observe and guide multiple learners through hands-on trainings.

Protect student privacy and data

All Axis solutions are designed to comply with privacy regulations and cybersecurity practices. The microphone on devices with two-way audio can always be switched off. Cameras let you choose between live streaming vs. recording options as needed for regulations and event contracts. Additionally, video masking options let you apply partial or total privacy – for example, masking faces, or clearly showing a presenter while masking the audience. We also make it easy for you to protect sensitive data, thanks to a variety of tools that guarantee and protect the identity and integrity of Axis devices and help you stay up-to-date on vulnerabilities and fixes.
