CHALLENGE

Ramada Hotel and Suites Ajman  by Wyndam provides free WiFi in public areas and rooms, but with the following problems, it turned to TP-Link for a reliable and fast network solution:
    The thick walls made of red bricks blocked the wireless signals.
    The Wi-Fi range was not wide enough to fully cover the rooms and public areas.
    The old Wi-Fi technology has been out of date, which may not be fast and stable enough.
    Centralized monitoring & management to manage and control the users to use the internet.

BUSINESS RESULTS

The Ramada Hotel and Suites Ajman Hotel Management and customers were extremely satisfied with the TP-Link Business WiFi solution, as well as management features that allow IT administrators to centrally manage the network, generate temporary guest tokens (via 3rd part Management software) load balance the clients and limit access rights. This all performed through the Omada SDN cloud platform which helped administrators to specifically manage the hotel's WiFi network. Hotel guests are extremely happy to browse over a very fast 802.11ac/ax WiFi network to enjoy Internet-based entertainment, such as HD movies, games and video chats, without compromising WiFi stability or security.
