In 2021, blended/hybrid learning is the new new-normal.  As society manages the demands of educating our youth under the umbrella of a pandemic, Educators and Parents are still battling the Coronavirus in ways ranging from social-distancing to quarantining.   Meanwhile, your networks are supporting 2019’s on-premise demands, plus 2020’s remote learning challenges, in a combination that is stressing families, faculty & administration, operations, and the critical infrastructure supporting the entirety of it all.

The world of Information Technology in Education is filled with complex networks.  From single location IT Closets, to a campus-filled network presence, IT Networks are littered with servers, switches, routers, and new equipment supporting security, video, and technologies yet to come.  As networks grow, so do our partners at LINX.  One of our newest, DVL Group, specializes in the world of IT critical infrastructure.  Their expertise includes power back-up, cooling, and power distribution strengthening the most vital aspects of your IT network.

LINX can now help you identify your network gaps and suggest cost effective solutions that will save your organization money in the long run.
