03 Jun 2016 Hotels Everywhere Are Starting to Understand the Benefits of Premium Quality WiFi

Guests have been asking for fast and reliable connectivity for years. Hotels have been listening and with the help of Ruckus Wireless, allowing them to create and build more robust guest networks, they are now able to meet these ever growing customer demands.

There are several advantages of offering a premium quality, Ruckus WiFi solution. Here are some of them:

Faster Deployment and Configuration

With Free WiFi no longer being an optional extra but a complete necessity for the modern day hotel guest, with poor quality, or complete lack of WiFi leading to considerable frustration and a decrease in customer satisfaction. However, the deployment and configuration of a wireless network no longer needs to be time-consuming, difficult and annoying.

A Ruckus Wi-Fi network can be set up much faster than conventional ones. With Ruckus’ different controller model deployment options, hotels can now choose the solution that is right for them. Furthermore, with Ruckus’ exclusive ChannelFly™ technology and their ability to utilise all 11 available channels, your performance is improved by the AP selecting an optimal radio channel via active capacity measurements. Providing you with a much less congested network.

With a full portfolio of indoor, outdoor and point to point hardware, Ruckus enables guests to stay connected regardless of where they are within the hotel.

Guests want Internet access everywhere they go.

Lower Number of Access Points

One of the most common problems hotels face is the looming costs of having a large number of APs installed as, traditionally, this was the only way of ensuring reliable WiFi anywhere on the premises.

With Ruckus – this is not the case. Ruckus Wireless has designed the BeamFlex+™ with the express purpose of providing high RF performance WiFi using fewer APs. This patented antenna technology means the AP can calculate the best path to clients, routing around interference by maximising the signal-to-noise ratio. The adaptive nature of BeamFlex+™ means that antennas adapt to the client device orientation in real-time, optimising both vertical and horizontal polarisations.

With this technology, hotels will use fewer APs without sacrificing quality for their guests.

Hotels, large ones in particular, can save a sizeable sum of money by choosing the right equipment.

More WiFi Capacity

A hotel’s public network is especially under strain during conferences. It is common during such events for hundreds of clients to access the Internet simultaneously. Such pressure gravely slows data speed, even making some users unable to access the WiFi at all. Ensuring reliability comes down to two things: Internet speed and AP technology.

Features such as client load balancing, band steering, and airtime fairness are a necessity that Ruckus provide. Another important aspect is the fast speed at which APs connect and disconnect users. Ruckus’ wave 2 ac technology also means higher speed allowing your customers faster speeds – even in higher density situations such as meetings and conferences.

A robust network that uses high-capacity APs can support a large number of clients with ease. 

Multimedia Support

Simple Internet access is not enough for a growing hospitality company. You need technology that supports multimedia applications. Some examples are video streaming, digital signage, and voice communication.

A robust network boosts customer satisfaction but also improves efficiency at the hotel drastically.

Being able to support many applications simultaneously depends on AP technology. Modern APs, like the ones made by Ruckus Wireless, can classify and optimise multimedia traffic. This ensures that both guests and staff use the network without problems.
