In a public accommodation building, Wi-Fi is not an extra: it is what lets guests work, services operate and the organisation stay accountable. Through a prior consultation procedure, the Serviços Sociais da Administração Pública (SSAP) awarded DataRoad - IT Services and Consulting the structured network and 56 Wi-Fi 7 access points across three buildings in Évora, Aljubarrota and São Pedro do Sul, with continuous remote management.

Which buildings were equipped?

  • Estalagem de Évora
  • Casa Alice Félix
  • Estalagem do Cruzeiro In Aljubarrota

Why Wi-Fi 7?

Because these spaces host many people and many connected devices at the same time. Wi-Fi 7 handles that density with high throughput and low latency. An older-generation network would start failing precisely at peak occupancy.

How was the installation carried out?

  1. Cable: new structured cabling in every building.
  2. Routes: cable trunking and an organised physical infrastructure.
  3. Equipment: firewalls, switches and the 56 Wi-Fi 7 access points.
  4. Configuration: the solution configured end to end by our networking team.
  5. Operation: remote monitoring, maintenance and ongoing management by DataRoad.

What does a project like this prove?

That DataRoad delivers what the State requires: specifications met, contractual deadlines kept, full documentation and long-term reliability. We already work with eight public bodies, across 24 contracts. We thank SSAP for their trust in our consultancy, installation, network management and maintenance.

That trust was renewed. In October 2026, SSAP chose us again for a business wireless network with 14 access points, firewall and alerts. Project details in the full success story and the overall picture in DataRoad's 24 public contracts.

And after installation?

With IT Unlimited, the network stays under watch, with ongoing alerts and reports, so it remains available and performs as designed.
