Partners Seek High Wire Networks’ Wireless Networking Solutions to Install 5G Internet on Buses For eLearning
As the 2020-21 school year is underway, many school districts are offering eLearning or virtual academy learning as an option for students. However, the biggest challenge around eLearning for millions of children in the U.S. is a lack of high-speed internet at home. Around 21 million people do not have home access to broadband (2019 Federal Communications Commission report).
A recent article in Bloomberg headlined, U.S. Schools Trying to Teach Online Highlight a Digital Divide, reported how distance learning necessitated by the pandemic starkly exposed the continued disparities in access. Simply put, children who lack internet now also lack access to education. If students cannot log in to a computer or access their schoolwork, how can they learn?
With High Wire’s vendor agnostic solutions, we are equipping buses with 5G internet on behalf of our value-added reseller (VAR) partners. The services include installing routers, mounting antennas to the roofs of the buses, and installing cables between the routers and antennas. Buses equipped with 5G will be integral in the success of students who may not have had a chance otherwise. Together with our partners, we can give students without internet access, an opportunity to learn this school year.
