Shelton School

Shelton School contracted Viyu Network Solutions to help analyze, plan, design and implement the IT and voice infrastructure for a new 35-acre campus in North Dallas.  Starting 18 months prior to the buildings being ready, Viyu’s consulting and engineering teams worked closely with Shelton school leaders and IT staff, architects, engineers and consultants to help define the requirements for internet bandwidth, network security, LAN switching, structured cabling, wireless network, voice communications and power protection.

After the planning and purchasing stages were complete, Viyu’s installation engineers began the process of deploying over 1,200 switch ports, 180 wireless access points, 250 phones and 40 pieces of power protection equipment across the campus.  During this installation phase, Viyu’s project management team coordinated efforts with the general contractor and with the subcontractors for physical security, lighting, low voltage cabling, electrical and mechanical systems.  Any IoT device that required network or internet access was prioritized and separated on the network using secure VLANs.

Once the project was nearing completion, Viyu provided over eighty pages of documentation and specifications to the Shelton IT staff for their use in the future.  Ongoing support for all systems is being provided by Viyu.
