Streaming your services, managing a guest network for the congregation, and keeping your AV systems connected โ reliable church WiFi is no longer optional. We design and install networks built for worship spaces.
Church networks need to support livestreaming bandwidth, congregation guest access, and AV system connectivity โ all without interfering with each other.
Dedicated upload bandwidth reserved for your streaming encoder โ no competition from the congregation's phones.
Separate SSID for attendees with bandwidth limits โ fast enough to be useful, throttled so one user can't hog the stream.
Isolated VLAN for ProPresenter, video switching, and Dante audio networking โ protected from guest traffic.
APs placed for coverage at every seat โ lobby, sanctuary, fellowship hall, and classrooms on one unified system.
Private SSID for pastoral staff and office โ isolated from guest and AV segments with full bandwidth access.
Controller-based system lets you see every connected device and troubleshoot remotely between Sundays.
Site survey, cabling, APs, and all three network segments configured in one visit for most facilities.
We walk the facility, map AP coverage requirements, and assess your existing internet service for streaming capacity.
Cat6 runs to each AP location โ sanctuary, lobby, fellowship hall, and any remote classrooms.
APs ceiling-mounted, adopted into controller, VLANs configured for staff/guest/AV segments.
Live encoder test at your typical streaming bitrate to confirm upload bandwidth holds under load.
For 720p streaming, plan for 5โ10 Mbps upload reserved. For 1080p, 10โ20 Mbps. For 4K, 20โ40 Mbps. We also recommend QoS rules that guarantee this bandwidth to your streaming device regardless of guest usage.
Yes โ with proper VLAN segmentation and QoS rules, guest traffic is isolated and bandwidth-limited so it cannot interfere with your streaming encoder's dedicated upload path.
With proper WiFi coverage, congregation members can use WiFi calling and church apps without relying on cell signal โ particularly valuable for stone or brick sanctuaries that block cellular.
Yes โ we serve churches throughout Lancaster County including Lititz, Ephrata, Manheim, Elizabethtown, Columbia, Strasburg, and all surrounding communities.
