A campus network the IT team can run from a browser
Wi-Fi 6 raises wireless capacity by two to five times for device-dense classrooms; PoE switches with fanless designs keep teaching spaces quiet; ATP firewalls with sandboxing stop zero-day threats before they reach pupils' devices. Everything is managed centrally through Nebula, so a trust IT team can see every site without leaving the office — and Zyxel's MSP programme has a strand built for education resellers.
- Wi-Fi 6 / 6E / 7 access points for high-density classrooms
- PoE and multi-gig switching with cloud status
- ATP / USG FLEX security with zero-day sandboxing
- Nebula cloud management across every site in the trust
A phone system built for safeguarding and mobility
Yeastar P-Series gives staff mobility, personalised call rules, built-in recording, voicemail-to-email and click-to-dial from Outlook; pupils get direct 999 dialling and facility-wide announcements; administrators get call queues, custom greetings, paging and emergency alerts; IT gets API integration with the school MIS, multi-site connectivity and web configuration. Deploy on a P550/P560/P570 appliance, as software on your own server, or as Yeastar Cloud.
- Emergency alerts, paging and facility-wide announcements
- Call recording, queues and personalised routing
- MIS integration via API; multi-site as standard
- Hardware, software or cloud editions
Endpoints that survive a school
Yealink's range covers every space from reception to the site manager's DECT handset, with headsets for admin teams. Snom's German-engineered phones bring the industry's lowest RMA rates, a three-year warranty, per-device SHA-2 certificates and encrypted signalling and audio — sensible defaults in a safeguarding environment.
- Desk, DECT and Wi-Fi handsets for every space
- Snom: 3-year warranty and lowest RMA rates
- Encrypted signalling and audio out of the box
- Provisioned by EFL before delivery
Know where people and equipment are
The Snom Beacon solution adds cost-effective location and asset tracking and alarm systems to the same DECT infrastructure: lone-worker and panic alarms for staff, and tracking for laptops, trolleys and AV kit that has a habit of walking between buildings.
- Staff alarm and lone-worker functions
- Asset tracking on existing DECT
- Integrates with the Snom M-series base stations
Teach, learn and meet in any room
From small meeting rooms to extra-large classrooms, Yealink's Android and Windows room systems and the MeetingBoard 65/86 interactive display bring hybrid teaching, parent meetings and staff collaboration onto one platform — scalable and matched to the room.
- MeetingBoard 65" and 86" interactive displays
- Room kits from huddle space to lecture theatre
- Microsoft Teams and Zoom certified options
