Zyxel Communications announced a new 802.11ac Wall-Plate Unified Access Point, WAC5302D-S, specifically tailored for hotels, campuses, townships and enterprises to deliver good guest Wi-Fi experiences in multi-room, interference prone environments.
While consumers now see fast, free Wi-Fi as the top amenity when choosing a hotel, hoteliers still face challenges implementing Wi-Fi solutions. A recent study suggests that 65 per cent of consumers have had to rely on 3G/4G at some point due to poor Wi-Fi in their hotel. In most cases, poor Wi-Fi experience results from lesser number of wireless access points in suboptimal positions or unevenly distributed web traffic.
The Zyxel WAC5302D-S is equipped with a design which allows it to be installed anywhere for best Wi-Fi signal and in-room deco. It can be mounted directly on an outlet box, wall, desktop, or out of sight with no additional kits required. With the built-in Ethernet and PoE ports, it can also connect and supply power to other in-room services such as smart TV or IP phone.
With the WAC5302D-S, the smart antenna and beam-forming technology will dynamically customize signal direction for each individual device, creating the best path to deliver Wi-Fi signals while mitigating interference from neighboring APs.
