All the Wi-Fi access points powered by PoE (PoE, PoE+ and PoE++), whatever the brand. The PoE-Sea+ is placed on the network cable between the PoE switch and the access point.

No. The SSID, the passwords, the VLANs and the configuration of the access points do not change. Each PoE-Sea+ is connected with a short network cable, and the switches are placed without cable.

No. The EnOcean switches produce the energy of the radio message when you press them. They are placed on the wall or on a desk, and there is nothing to maintain.

The PoE-Sea Link connects the PoE-Sea+ of a building to the cloud service, through the network of the school. One PoE-Sea Link is enough for many PoE-Sea+ in range of its radio, and a PoE-Sea+ can repeat the radio messages to reach further.

As long as you choose: the delay before switching off is set per PoE-Sea+, in seconds or in minutes. A press on off switches the access point off at once.

Not if you don't want it: the weekly schedule can lock the switches during the breaks, after school and on weekends, and unlock them at the start of the lessons.

Yes. The paired switches, the settings and the weekly schedule are stored in the PoE-Sea+ itself, which has its own clock. The cloud service is used to change the settings and to see the statistics.

Yes. The PoE-Sea+ can switch the access point on automatically at a regular interval, for a minimum time, or you can switch it on remotely from the cloud service.

All the PoE-Sea Link of the municipality are linked to the account, and the PoE-Sea+ are grouped by building. The dashboard and the statistics can be filtered per school, and the configuration can be exported and imported.

Each user has a role: a visitor sees everything without changing anything, a user changes the settings of the PoE-Sea+, and an administrator also adds PoE-Sea Links and organises the buildings.

The software of the PoE-Sea+ is updated from the cloud service, through the PoE-Sea Link. An update takes 5 to 15 minutes, and the Wi-Fi works as before afterwards.

The events of the equipment: when a switch is pressed, when the Wi-Fi is switched on and off, restarts and technical status. PoE-Sea does not see the traffic of the network and stores no data about the pupils.

Multiply the number of access points by their power and by the hours where they are off. Example: 30 access points of 10 W, on only 1 300 hours a year instead of 8 760, save about 2 200 kWh a year.

A network that is off cannot be attacked or used without permission. Outside school hours there is no Wi-Fi to break into from outside the building, and the event log shows when it was switched on.

Wi-Fi uses radio waves, LiFi uses invisible infrared light. The light does not go through the walls: the connection stays in the classroom. Since 2023, LiFi is an IEEE standard (802.11bb) that works together with Wi-Fi.

No. The LiFi transmitters are placed on the ceiling, next to the lights. The school can also replace its lighting with LED panels with a built-in LiFi transmitter, to save energy on the lighting at the same time.

A classroom of about 70 m² gets about six transmitters, for up to 15 devices at the same time. Each tablet or computer receives the signal with a small USB key.

About 1,500 euros per classroom (estimate of 2023), depending on the room and on the lighting. LiFi Solutions studies the needs of your school and makes you an offer.

Both can work together. PoE-Sea controls the Wi-Fi that the school already has, classroom by classroom. LiFi is for the classrooms where a connection without radio waves is preferred. LiFi Solutions advises you, from a simple advice to the complete study of your needs.
