Delivering Guest Web Connectivity

Delivering Secured Guest Web Connectivity
We recognise that the cost of delivering quality guest web connectivity goes way beyond the provision of an internet connection, and the maintenance of the infrastructure.

Designed for use in hotels, convention/conference centres, restaurants and more, where internet access is available to guests and staff - our systems deliver the tools that improve the guest web experience, give full control and security to the network manager and reduce your legal liabilities.

Legal requirements - and those related to security threats - are prevailing, and the consequences for transgressing them are severe and expensive.  For example; lawsuits through guest copyright infringement (illegal downloading of films) have been and still are a real and worrying threat.

Maintaining enough bandwidth for guest use is another constant challenge.  With video on demand estimated to be over 20% of all web traffic it seriously impact on guests’ day-to-day needs for consistent and fast connectivity for email and browsing activities.

Keeping your networks operating effectively in such a dynamic environment is a challenge – it requires robust and agile tools.  Our technologies enable you to build an environment that operates efficiently and safely without draining your time and your web resources.
