Secure connectivity and high availability for healthcare environments
In healthcare facilities, wireless network reliability is vital. Whether for patient monitoring, medical applications, connected devices, or visitor connectivity, next-generation Wi-Fi ensures consistent performance, enhanced security, and regulatory compliance.
LOGIQE supports hospitals and clinics in deploying high-density, resilient, and secure Wi-Fi networks, with proven expertise in the field.
Coverage study and analysis of Wi-Fi requirements in hospitals
Each hospital or clinic has unique constraints that LOGIQE takes into account from the analysis phase onwards:
- On-site coverage study: consideration of architectural complexity (operating rooms, reinforced walls, technical basements).
- Predictive simulation: signal modeling to anticipate dead zones and ensure consistent coverage (rooms, emergency rooms, laboratories).
- Business analysis: identification of specific needs according to department (intensive care, imaging, pediatrics, administration, etc.).
- Consideration of connected medical devices: compatibility and quality of service for IoMT (Internet of Medical Things) devices.
- GDPR and HDS compliance: integration of health data security requirements.
Benchmarking and selection of publishers
LOGIQE acts as a multi-manufacturer integrator, with continuous technology monitoring and expertise in the following solutions:

FAQ – Next-generation Wi-Fi for hospitals
What is the difference between standard Wi-Fi and hospital Wi-Fi?
Hospital Wi-Fi must meet stricter requirements in terms of security, resilience, and electromagnetic compatibility. It must also guarantee permanent availability and consistent coverage in complex areas (clean rooms, imaging, emergency rooms, etc.).
Is Wi-Fi compatible with medical equipment?
Yes, under certain conditions. LOGIQE checks electromagnetic compatibility, applies network segmentation rules, and prioritizes critical flows to ensure optimal operation of connected devices (monitors, pumps, etc.).
Can patient connections be isolated from the rest of the network?
Absolutely. Thanks to VLAN segmentation and 802.1X authentication, LOGIQE sets up separate guest networks with no access to the institution's critical systems.
What does HDS mean?
HDS stands for Health Data Hosting. It is a French regulatory framework, overseen by the Digital Health Agency (ANS), which imposes strict security, traceability, and compliance requirements on any organization (public or private) that hosts, processes, or stores personal health data.
How can HDS and GDPR compliance be guaranteed?
LOGIQE integrates logging, traceability, and access protection solutions, with complete documentation for HDS or CNIL audits. Data access is compartmentalized, encrypted, and limited to authorized users.
What to do in case of a Wi-Fi incident in a critical area?
LOGIQE implements proactive monitoring and offers 24/7 on-call support. In the event of a failure, redundancy and rapid recovery solutions ensure uninterrupted service continuity.
