Challenges of Reliable Wireless Networks
4S stores face challenges such as high bandwidth demand, extensive area coverage needs, decentralized IT management, and asset monitoring, requiring tailored solutions for effective operations.
High Bandwidth Demand During Peak Hours:
4S stores experience high foot traffic during peak hours, resulting in increased demand for internet bandwidth. The existing network infrastructure needs to support robust enterprise-level access points (AP) to handle the high bandwidth requirements effectively.
Extensive Area Coverage:
Given the large area of 4S stores, achieving comprehensive wireless signal coverage is challenging. The need for enterprise-grade APs with extensive coverage capabilities is crucial to ensure a seamless network experience across the entire store, including offices and exhibition halls.
Decentralized and Limited IT Management:
The widespread distribution of 4S stores complicates centralized IT management due to a lack of dedicated maintenance staff or limited technical skills. This requires a simple, visual, cross-network management platform to reduce the burden on headquarters.
Asset Management and Monitoring:
The headquarters' IT department lacks a systematic approach to tracking and valuing assets across various stores. There is a need for a platform that can provide comprehensive asset statistics and monitor the status of these assets.
