Cannes Hospital Centre
An ambitious network project lies at the heart of the renovation of the Cannes Hospital Centre.
During the first three months of 2011 the final departments of the new Cannes Hospital Centre will be opened. This is the last stage of a long building project lasting several years which has seen the complete renovation of its infrastructure including the construction of a new building. This project has harnessed the energies of many people and organisations so that the town of Cannes and the surrounding area can benefit from state-of-the-art equipment meeting the latest care and in-patient standards in order to provide the population with high quality medical services dispensed by staff with the latest technological advances.
Challenge
In order to open its new infrastructure, scheduled for the beginning of 2011, the Cannes Hospital Centre (Alpes-Maritimes) wanted to have a new high-performance data transmission network.

Solution
The hospital centre opted for a fully fibre optic mesh network. It is made up of 13 Avaya chassis Ethernet switches including peripheral equipment.

Value created
- The high performance network supplies 2400 data ports to the hospital centre’s infrastructure.
- Its full mesh architecture guarantees a high level of availability thanks in particular to the RSMLT (Routed Split Multi-Link Trunking) protocol.
- It is easy to administer thanks to Avaya’s new Unified Communication Management software suite.
- The network is used to carry all data traffic (with priority given to voice and biomedical data): file transfers, VoIP, access control, video surveillance, technical management, biomedical applications (imaging, monitoring, etc.). It optimises patient care by making it easier to manage administrative and medical files.
- Practitioners and patients benefit from
a service platform that is easy to access, including a WiFi network (500 ports) which enables all data to be managed at the patient’s bedside as well as mobile monitoring.
"We paid a great deal of attention to the WiFi architecture so that we could access information and applications at the patient’s bedside. We carried out exhaustive studies and tests for security, feasibility, integration, topographical coverage and guaranteed results. This went way beyond just installing WiFi terminals."- Cannes Hospital Centre
