As network connectivity plays an increasingly important role in an intelligent converged infrastructure, hospitality owners and brands are challenged to find ways to leverage technology in order to improve their guest experience. Historically, most hotel networks weren’t designed from the ground up. Instead, they slowly evolved to support a hodgepodge of existing technologies such as DSL (digital subscriber line), DOCSIS (Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification), and G.hn (data transmission over telephone wiring, coaxial cables, power lines). While these technologies were adequate at the time and maximized the life-span of the current cabling infrastructure, guests continue to demand more from their hospitality network. Today, guests expect a modern hospitality network to offer power, wired and wireless connectivity, and an increasing number of new technologies such as internet of things (IoT) as part of their guest experience.
