The University of Southampton awarded a contract to CAE Technology Services Limited for the design and build of a modern and secure LAN and WLAN infrastructure across its campus, halls of residence, and data centre.

The project, valued at £45,000,000, aimed to replace all end-of-life wired and wireless network infrastructure at the core, distribution, and access layers, covering all permanently connected campuses and smaller sites in the local region.

The scope included the ongoing development of features and capabilities to support a 'smart' campus network, aligning with the university's digital transformation goals.
