THE CHALLENGE
Several systems.
One opening deadline.
The hotel needed its technology infrastructure delivered quickly ahead of opening. Guest Wi-Fi, surveillance, back-office computers and telephony all needed a dependable network foundation, with the cabling and connectivity in place to support them.
Hillsnet’s role was to bring the network, cabling and connected systems together as a complete installation. The telephone system was supplied by a third party; we prepared the network infrastructure to support their deployment.
THE SOLUTION
One coordinated
network installation.
A converged network supporting multiple hotel services, with the infrastructure and cabling planned together.
Guest Wi-Fi within budget
A tailored MikroTik guest Wi-Fi solution met the project’s budget requirements, providing the wireless service as part of the wider hotel network.
35+ Hikvision IP cameras
We installed more than 35 Hikvision IP CCTV cameras, with the network connectivity supporting the surveillance system included in the project.
Back-office connectivity
The hotel’s back-office computers were connected to the network, giving staff the infrastructure needed for their day-to-day work.
Network ready for telephony
Hillsnet prepared the network for the telephone deployment. The phones and telephone system were delivered by a separate provider.
Documented handover
The completed installation was documented for the hotel, giving a clear record of the delivered network and connected systems for future support and changes.
