Hotel Nikko San Francisco Elevates Broadband Connectivity with Innovative Technology
TORONTO (PRWEB) June 29, 2023 -- Hotel Nikko San Francisco, a renowned luxury high-rise hotel located at 222 Mason Street, has announced the successful deployment of its high-speed Wi-Fi service. Using a ground-breaking solution from Positron Access Solutions, that combines Wi-Fi and bandwidth to create a less disruptive than fibre installation, by repurposing the existing coax to improve connectivity for all guests and enhance every individual's experience while staying at the 532-room hotel.
"We were astounded by the remarkable data speed rates we achieved during the proof of concept with Positron," said David Ng, Director of IT at Hotel Nikko San Francisco. “Our team was excited to see the exceptional results during the proof-of-concept trial and very thankful for the flawless and quick integration without causing disruption to our hotel guests.”
Positron partnered with a Tier-1 Telecom provider that is a leader for connectivity and network in the hospitality industry, proposed a cutting-edge technology solution to achieve a converged Ethernet network infrastructure over the same coaxial cabling that had been deemed unfit to support applications such as guest Wi-Fi and IPTV, while being ready to support other Ethernet/IP applications in the future. In tandem, Positron Access Solutions, a leading provider of bandwidth and broadband solutions, introduced the hotel to their G.hn Access Multiplexer (GAM) solution, which revolutionizes connectivity by delivering Gigabit bandwidth over existing telephone wiring or coaxial cabling. G.hn is an international standard (ITU-T G.9960) that enables Gigabit speeds to each subscriber without the costly and disruptive installation of fiber connections to every guest room.
"Our GAM solution proved to be an invaluable asset in addressing the cable plant challenges. It not only saved the day but also expedited the delivery of an upgrade for this iconic hotel, offering a converged Ethernet infrastructure for a seamless guest experience", said Pierre Trudeau, President & CTO of Positron Access Solutions.
For hotels seeking to enhance their connectivity, the traditional approach of rewiring can be invasive and costly. However, with solutions like Positron’s GAM, hotels with existing coaxial cabling or telephone wiring can use their current infrastructure. Positron's innovative solution harnesses the power of the ITU-T G.hn standard, facilitating Gigabit Ethernet transmission over existing copper or coax wiring.
Hotel Nikko San Francisco's successful deployment of this cutting-edge technology marks a significant milestone, exemplifying how hotels can overcome connectivity challenges while leveraging their existing infrastructure investment.
