It’s not an exaggeration to say that a better, energy-efficient lock system and solid internet connection helps hotel business to cut cost while retaining customers to come back.
Technology is the backbone of offering guests first-rate service and an unforgettable experience.
And in this article we will take a look on one of them which is Hotel Networking system.
What Is Hotel Networking and Why Is It Important?
In simple term, hotel networking system is basically system that makes sure your internet and software connection is super reliable and fast.
This means faster Wi-Fi for the customers and also for the workers.
This internet connectivity is a key piece of technology that affects the hotel sector. It’s actually become necessary nowadays to support digital services in order to enable quick & easy hotel reservation.
Case Study
A recent study by DeepBlue Communications found that 63% of tourists check for Wi-Fi access before reserving a hotel room.
Additionally, 36% said that if they had a negative experience with a hotel’s wireless network, they would not stay there again. Plus, the study found that 72% of passengers favors Wi-Fi over wired connections.
This shows why the speed of your hotel business are essential to attract customers and this is where hotel networking system comes into place.
Additionally, networking can improve internal communication among employees, particularly when in-apps are used.
In the past, mobile communication was frequently utilized as a means of communication with employees to monitor room status, conduct check-ins, or even identify problems within rooms.
This has recently been changed by network solutions that act as an engagement channel that is always open.
VSH Technology offers a complete hotel networking solution from figuring the right topology for your building to supplying branded network tech (such as IP COM & Ruijie) on wholesale price.
What networking solution improves?
A better and well-planned networking system will improve these 5 areas of connectivity issues:
Signal coverage
The Wi-Fi signal can be spread throughout the hotel by installing numerous WFIP in strategic locations, especially in areas like guest rooms, bars, restaurants, banquet halls, conference rooms, etc.
Signal coverage
Better networking system offers a full coverage on the business area.
High-density access
To achieve adequate Wi-Fi coverage in crowded spaces like conference rooms and banquet halls, many wireless APs must frequently be installed, which may result in radio signal overlapping. One client can connect to several APs, and it will apply an algorithm to select the one that will deliver the best performance.
Therefore, it is possible for a large number of clients to connect to a single AP, increasing its load while other APs are idle, which results in inefficient use of AP resources and reduces client efficiency.
To enhance the end-user experience and the effectiveness of all AP resources, a load balancing mechanism must be built while developing and operating a wireless network.
High-density access
A lot of people means a lot of traffic and usage, with a suitable (have balancing mechanism) and properly placed access point, the signal speed will not be overwhelmed
Speed
The need for bandwidth among consumers has been gradually rising as a result of the steady growth of mobile applications, particularly the appearance of some applications like P2P and online video.
For instance, 2000M bits of bandwidth is required for 1.000 concurrent users, each of whom is guaranteed 2M bits of bandwidth. The user’s demand for network bandwidth is also limitless; regardless of how much bandwidth is available, if there is a poor management system in place, the user experience will be terrible.
Speed
Now the speed of internet is more important than ever. Online class, meetings, calls – everyone who came to hotel will use much more data than before. Consider upgrading your network if you find the data a bit slow for today standards.
Network security
The wireless network offers network access services to visitors; it should guarantee secure access, shield visitors from virus attacks, and prevent information leakage.
Network security
Public Wi-Fi can be dangerous as it can be attacked by malicious users. Network security is another way to gain more trust from the customer while having a piece of mind that your internal connection is secure.
