Private Networks in Education: Cost-Effective, Long-Term Solution to Bridge the Digital Divide

In today’s hyper-connected world, online learning is an integral part of the curriculum, whether augmenting in-person classes or fully remote education. However, the Digital Divide experienced by K-12 students is a significant hurdle in getting a well-rounded, holistic education. While utilizing public cellular networks can often be a quick fix, Private Networks are proving to be a cost-effective, long-term solution for this challenge.

Small cells deployed on school buildings combined with mobile hotspots and fixed Wireless Access terminals make it possible to provide coverage to homes around schools, and Wi-Fi enables in-home connectivity for students. Kajeet, a leader in education technology, has successfully deployed such networks in more than 40 US school districts.
