Industry
Hospitality
Networks, guest Wi-Fi, IPTV and telephony for hotels and resorts – designed for the season and operated around the clock.
The challenge
Infrastructure for operations that never pause
Hotels and resorts operate without interruption. Guests arrive at any hour, use several devices each and expect consistent connectivity across the entire property. At the same time, reception, restaurants, housekeeping and wellness facilities depend on the same infrastructure – frequently in buildings that have grown over decades.
We plan hotel technology around the operating cycle of the season: short installation windows, peak occupancy and high device density. After opening, we remain responsible for operation and monitor the infrastructure around the clock, so that faults are resolved before they affect guests.
What matters
What matters in hospitality
-
01
Peak load every evening
Hundreds of guests streaming and communicating simultaneously. The network must be designed for peak demand, not average utilisation.
-
02
Extensive, heterogeneous properties
Main buildings, villas, pool areas and conference facilities – construction materials and distances make consistent coverage demanding.
-
03
Many systems on one infrastructure
Guest Wi-Fi, PMS, telephony, IPTV, POS and building technology share the network and must not interfere with one another.
-
04
Minimal tolerance for downtime
Installation and maintenance must be aligned with guest operations and the season.

Frequently asked questions
Is this relevant only for large resorts?
No. The same principles apply to a 40-room city hotel and to a resort with several hundred rooms: design for full occupancy, separate systems and ensure continuous monitoring. We scale the solution to the property.
Which property management systems can be integrated?
Hotel telephony is integrated with Micros-Fidelio, Protel, Billiant and roomMaster. For other systems, we assess the available interfaces with you.
Do you also provide Wi-Fi for events at our property?
Yes. With EventiFI we provide temporary managed Wi-Fi for conferences, weddings and events, over 4G/LTE where required.
Building or renovating a hotel?
Whether a new resort or an existing property: tell us about your plans and we will discuss the right infrastructure with you – from the design phase to the season.
