University of Southampton awarded a contract to Glide Student and Residential Limited for a pilot phase to upgrade Wi-Fi in Halls of Residence.

The pilot involved installing in-room wall plate mounted access points in every other student bedroom and repositioning existing enterprise class access points in corridors.

All access points were free-issued by the University from existing stock.

The contract value was £5,360.

The pilot's outcomes will inform the design for a potential full rollout to the remaining Halls estate, which would be tendered separately.
