# SSAP: managed Wi-Fi on every floor of the Olaias building

At a glance For decision-makers short on time.

- 01 In 2021, SSAP chose DataRoad again for the Wi-Fi in its Olaias building.
- 02 Access points on every floor, seamless roaming and isolated guest access.
- 03 PoE switches, a gateway with IPS and remote management with alerts and reports.
- 04 Network managed under IT Unlimited; 24/7 monitoring only on Premium 365.

### In this article

**In a public body, Wi-Fi that drops between floors is not a nuisance: it means delayed appointments, interrupted meetings and a guest network that must never, under any circumstances, touch the internal network.** In 2021, the Social Services of the Public Administration (SSAP) chose DataRoad - IT Services and Consulting once again for the business wireless network of its building in Olaias, Lisbon. We installed, expanded and modernised: enterprise access points on every floor, PoE switches, a security gateway and permanent remote management. The intended result, and the one delivered: fast, secure and reliable connectivity anywhere in the building.

## Project details

| Client | SSAP: Social Services of the Public Administration |
| --- | --- |
| Sector | Public administration |
| Location | Olaias, Lisbon, multi-storey building |
| Work | Structured cabling · business Wi-Fi · firewall and security · servers and infrastructure · IT Unlimited |
| Year | 2021 |

## Why is good Wi-Fi hard in a multi-storey building?

Because people move and the network has to follow them. Someone going upstairs to a meeting cannot lose signal on the stairs, and each floor concentrates a different number of users. A public body adds its own requirements: flawlessly isolating the services network from the guest network and controlling all incoming and outgoing traffic.

## What solution did DataRoad install?

### Enterprise-grade access points

- **Every floor covered** No dead zones.
- **Capacity** Many devices connected at once.
- **Mobility** Roaming tuned so people can move without drop-outs.
- **Two networks** Services and guests fully separated.

### PoE switching

- **Power over the cable** Each access point is powered through its own network cable.
- **Headroom** Sized with growth in mind.
- **Smooth flow** Optimised, stable data traffic.

### Security gateway

- **Control** Traffic filtering.
- **IPS** Intrusion attempts detected and blocked.
- **Isolation** Reinforced segmentation between networks.

### Remote management

- **Single console** Access and equipment managed remotely.
- **Alerts** Faults detected at the outset.
- **Reports** Usage and performance on record.
- **Central monitoring** With 24/7 cover available on the Premium 365 plan.

## What happens after installation?

The network is managed, not just handed over. DataRoad took on maintenance, oversight and ongoing management: an available service, stable and protected operation, fast response to any incident and continuous optimisation, with updates when they are needed. The networking team adjusts the network whenever the institution's needs change.

That is how [IT Unlimited](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/it-unlimited-managed-it-services-fixed-fee/) works: monitoring, alerts, remote and on-site support, periodic reports, preventive maintenance and full systems management, for a fixed fee.

## Why does SSAP keep choosing DataRoad?

Because each project delivered strengthened the next. This work joins other projects for SSAP and consolidates a partnership built on results. We thank the Social Services of the Public Administration for their renewed trust in our consultancy, technical support, network installation and maintenance, and ongoing IT management.
