Guest networks that hold at full occupancy, property and point-of-sale systems that stay up through a
power cut, and cabling that supports cameras, phones and access control on one infrastructure.
Coverage is usually not the problem. Capacity at check-in and evening peak is, along with access points chosen for a home rather than a corridor with concrete walls.
Front desk cannot check anyone in during the generator changeover, because the server and switch were never on protected circuits.
Charges posted at the bar do not reach the room folio, so reconciliation happens by hand at the end of every night.
Two parallel cabling systems, neither documented, and a camera network sharing bandwidth with guests.
The components are standard. How they are arranged is what the sector decides.
Capacity-based design per floor and public area, guest portal, bandwidth shaping and a separate network from all operational systems.
Connections that hold at check-in and evening peak, without a guest device reaching your systems.
Front desk, back office and PMS server on a protected segment with UPS-backed switching.
Check-in continues through a power changeover.
Restaurant, bar and spa terminals connected to the PMS over a segmented network with card handling isolated.
Charges post to the folio automatically, and card data stays out of general traffic.
One certified cabling system carrying data, Wi-Fi, IP telephony, cameras and access control.
One documented infrastructure instead of three undocumented ones.
Point-to-point links or outdoor-rated access points for annexes, poolside, gardens and conference space.
Coverage where guests actually sit, not only in the main block.
UPS on core switching, PMS server and front desk, with clean shutdown on generator changeover.
No corrupted reservations database after an outage.
Dedicated bandwidth allocation and wired drops for events, separate from guest traffic.
A corporate booking that does not compete with holiday guests for the link.
The usual pattern is a survey at full occupancy to see the real load, then cabling and access point replacement floor by floor during a low-occupancy window, with the property management system and front desk protected first because that is where an outage costs money immediately.
Yes. Cabling and cut-overs are scheduled floor by floor during low-occupancy periods, and front desk systems are moved last with the old path kept live until the new one is verified.
Not when they are separated. Guests sit on their own network with a bandwidth cap, and operational systems have reserved capacity that guest traffic cannot consume.
We handle the network, segmentation and protection around it, and coordinate with your PMS vendor on the integration itself. Most common platforms are straightforward to accommodate.
They run over the same structured cabling on their own VLANs. One cabling system, documented once, is cheaper to install and far cheaper to maintain than parallel installations.
The first assessment is free, and you keep the findings whether or not you engage us.
