Always-On Connectivity Today, business travelers expect to be in contact with their office network as effortlessly as if they were in their own corporate environment. Always-on connectivity allows guests to maintain productivity and capitalize on every business opportunity. Simple to Use: Free Configuration Environment Since guests do not travel with their MIS departments, a hospitality environment must provide an easy-to-use Internet service that makes guests' lives easier. ZyXEL gives customers immediate broadband access with no special settings to their laptops. Guests will notice the ZyXEL difference. Secure Access for Hotel and Guests With increasing concern about Internet security, guests want to know that broadband access in their chosen hotel is secure so they do not have to worry about it. Broadband Connection PLUS Since providing broadband access has become a basic connectivity requirement for hospitality venues, the choice becomes how to provide that access with maximum flexibility and performance and minimum cost. ZyXEL systems start from a broadband modem to which is added a series of wired switches or wireless s to provide optimal bandwidth throughout the property. Infrastructure can be based upon wireless access, existing CAT 3, Ethernet wiring or a combination. The True Plug-and-Play Experience With the ZyXEL HSIA subscriber gateway system, guests don't need to change any settings or download any software drivers to access the Internet. Their connection is seamless and transparent - just as they want it to be. Manage the Network Efficiently Whether a hotel charges for Internet access or not, the key to providing high quality services depends on the ability to easily monitor and control the user's Internet behavior. ZyXEL provides a flexible, highly manageable service that can be administered remotely while a comprehensive billing mechanism makes it simple to charge guests for access time. With a wide variety of options and integrated solutions, ZyXEL lowers Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for the hotel. Secure Information To achieve both security and ease-of-use, the hospitality environment requires that a ready-made network security platform be built into any HSIA solution. The ZyXEL system provides room-to-room security for either wired or wireless networks to keep guests from viewing each other's messages as well as to secure the hotel's internal network. A firewall prevents unauthorized access to the hotel system and the circulation of viruses. In addition, guests can continue to use their VPN applications for access to their secured corporate networks. When needed, the ZyXEL subscriber gateway allows the hotel or service provider to track detailed guest online activity. Integration with Existing Systems ZyXEL protects the hotel's investment. Because the ZyXEL system integrates seamlessly with a number of Property Management Systems (PMS) such as MicroFidelio, Marriott and MKII, the hospitality venue can update its current system with leading edge HSIA technology. Plus, technology from ZyXEL allows guests to use the telephone and the HSIA service at the same time with no service degradation - often critical to the business traveler.
