high-density environment to allow speed, capacity, signal integrity, seamless roaming and efficiency. - Create network mapping of Central’s access points to visually ID their location, allowing administrators to
optimize placement for optimal signal strength and coverage throughout campus, minimizing dead zones
and ensuring top speed network performance and essential troubleshooting - Install sound system in the eSport lab for crucial for communication between teammates and
commentators during gameplay, and for proper broadcasting of competitions to an audience both in-person
and online. CCHS became the first Catholic High School eSports Team in San Antonio, and continues to
