Challenge
What was broken._
An education group's six campuses ran a decade-old switching fleet with inconsistent SKUs, no centralised management, and frequent classroom dropouts during exam-portal load. Procurement also needed a brand with India-wide RMA and a familiar GUI for school-level IT volunteers.

Solution
What we did._
D-Link DGS-1210 smart-managed PoE switching standardised across all 84 closets, Nuclias Cloud for centralised visibility, and per-campus VLAN templates with an exam-mode QoS profile that prioritises proctored-exam traffic district-wide.

Results
The outcomes, measured._
- 84 switches deployed across 6 campuses in one academic break

“We finally have one dashboard for all six schools. The exam-day stress is gone.”
