Consumer expectations for seamless Wi-Fi have significantly increased in recent years, especially in the hospitality market where guests expect their room to include its own access point (AP) to support multiple devices. Today at HITEC, the world’s largest, most premier hospitality conference in†Toronto,†Extreme Networks, Inc.†announced its ExtremeWireless WiNG AP 7612 designed to support the specific needs of the hospitality industry. With the WiNG AP 7612, Extreme offers customers a solution with hotel-grade aesthetics, faster installation and application Quality of Service (Application QoS) right at the AP.
In the hospitality market, the AP’s design is especially important, as most hoteliers do not want their wireless solution to interfere with the aesthetic of their guest rooms. The round edges and shadow reducing bevels on the 7612 ensure that the AP can be seamlessly deployed across hotel zones – from guest rooms to conference rooms. It also features a market-proven Snap-On bracket that reduces installation time to just minutes, a crucial benefit for hotels that opt to install one AP per room.
As part of Extreme’s end-to-end wireless solution, the 7612 integrates network application visibility analytics and QoS into the AP. This integration enables the management of bandwidth based on guest application requirements and ensures lower priority Internet applications do not degrade the business traveler’s experience. The AP 7612’s Multiuser MIMO ensures the guest experience with the capacity to support many guest devices. Extreme’s WiNG architecture further differentiates with a self-optimizing wireless network well suited to support the increasing number of new guest Wi-Fi devices.
