With the goal of eazing access to the Internet to a greater number of
students, the Jose Marti Perez University of Sancti Spiritus (UNISS by
its Spanish acronym) will benefit soon from the installation of WiFi
technology, a mechanism that allows communication via wireless connection.

As part of the strategy of the Ministry of Higher Education to improve
computing infrastructure in university education in the country, the
setting up of this equipment will enable 300 people to simultaneously
surf, Orelvis Lopez, UNISS director of Administration of networks, told ACN.

In exclusive interview with ACN, he explained that students and teachers
who have laptops, tablets or smart phones can use the service in public
spaces without being in a laboratory of the center because the devices
have a range up to 100 meters.

According to the connectivity approved by the Ministry of Education for
Jose Marti Perez University, the technology will work with a speed of
two megabytes per second to enter .cu domains and send emails between
Cuban entities; while for accessing to foreign sites, the speed will be
of 640 kilobyte per second.

Lopez noted that network technicians work in ensuring security for
wireless mode when this to be established and emphasized also that only
university students and teachers who have an Internet account by the
educational institution can make use of this technology. / Source: ACN.
