Synergy Fiber:
Defining the Managed Service Standard at Park West

Industry Spotlight Texas A&M University

Delivering a future-proofed "Smart Campus" infrastructure for the largest student housing development in the United States.

Project Impact

  • 3,406 Beds Across 15 Buildings
  • Ubiquitous Managed Wi-Fi Throughout
  • Significant CAPEX & OPEX Savings

The Challenge: Scale & Complexity

Park West at Texas A&M University is not just a building; it's a massive 2.2-million-square-foot community. Servitas required a technology partner that could handle a "Texas-size" deployment within a strict timeframe to ensure over 3,400 students had connectivity on move-in day.

The objective was to create a seamless, high-performance network that could support heavy academic use, gaming, streaming, and integrated building systems like smart access control and video surveillance.
