Student Accommodation Technology
Blaucomm are industry experts in student accommodation technology. We’ve worked for some of the UK largest development contractors to design bespoke solutions. Sizes of these solutions vary from multiple HMO’s to multi-building tower blocks housing hundreds of individual units.
We give property developers and landlords a professional consultancy to advise the best solutions for their budget and requirements. We also oversee the deployment and maintain the aftercare, so we’re there every step of the way.
Digital TV for Student Accommodation
Fibre Integrated Reception System (FIRS) is our latest offering of Digital TV. In short, it provides tenants with any combination of Sky, SkyQ, SkyHD & 3D, Freesat, Freeview and radio services.
FIRS uses a single set of aerials and satellite dishes to provide digital entertainment services. As a result these serve hundreds of users without the need for individual satellites or aerials.
FIRS uses Fibre to distribute the signal in the building as opposed to traditional Copper Coax. Therefore, its not subject to electrical interference – fibre has minimal degradation so the signal is reliable and excellent quality.
Internet & WiFi for Student Accommodation
Student’s are probably the biggest users of Internet Connectivity. Netflix, NowTV, Amazon Prime, Skype, Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, YouTube – all examples of the common applications students use all the time.
Whether it’s online gaming, video calling or coursework, WiFi supports them all. It needs to be quick, support loads of devices all at once and never fails.
WiFi is often the first thing to be blamed when things stop loading. Chants of “the WiFi’s gone down” is not something to be heard in our deployments!
Whether it’s last-minute module submissions on or catching up with Peaky Blinders, everyone gets connected all the time.

IP CCTV
CCTV provides a valuable defence against malicious damage, theft, altercations and crime. It records and provides an unbiased and unaltered perception on events, resulting in identifying individuals to be held accountable.
CCTV provides preventative security measures that helps reassure tenants, since CCTV can act as a deterrent for any illicit activities.
IP CCTV is the shift from traditional CCTV usual coaxial cable and moving to modern Data Ethernet cabling. This is the same type of cabling that other networked devices use, such as PCs, Printers or WiFi access points.
As a result, this reduces cost since engineers installing data cabling can also install the required CCTV. Thus, this reduces additional specialist engineers on site and making use of existing materials on site.
Increase Revenue
Keep your accommodation full all the time , by making it more attractive to tenants through technology investment.
High Speed WiFi and Internet, Digital TV and Telephone Services provide additional value above the competition. You therefore spend less on advertising and marketing by establishing your business as a leading choice for consumers.
Increase Satisfaction for Tenants
By providing additional services, landlords can increase the satisfaction of their tenants and ultimately increase retention.
You can get on with growing your business, rather than dealing with tenant complaints or trying to fill empty rooms.
