Deliver high-speed, dependable Wi-Fi access for multiple devices in the guest

Hotels are facing a major challenge: guests expect superior in-room Internet performance on all their mobile devices.

Without it, 40 percent of guests — nearly half — say it will impact their decision to return.
challenge, more than half of today’s business guests travel with three or four devices
tablets and laptops — putting tremendous pressure on your existing wireless LAN. In addition, traditional wireless LAN
architecture typically creates areas where there is little or no wireless coverage for tablets and smartphones, forcing some
guests to go to the lobby to log on to obtain adequate speeds. As a result, your existing WLAN can’t deliver the in-room
performance your guests demand, threatening guest loyalty and revenue. While upgrading to a higher density wireless
LAN that supports the needs of these various devices might solve the problem, it has been cost-prohibitive — until now.
With the T5 Wi-Fi over VDSL2 system from Zebra Technologies, you can cost-eectively deliver high-speed wall-to-wall
Wi-Fi coverage inside every guest room in your hotel and expand your wireless network bandwidth to accommodate more
devices — without having to install new or rip-and-replace existing wiring. Its unique in-room architecture combines with
the ability to utilize existing telephone wiring to bring a new level of aordability to high-performance, high-speed in-room
Wi-Fi services that will improve the guest experience — and guest retention. With our patented Adaptive Line Power
technology and tamper-proof 802.11 wireless Wallplates, installation is fast and easy, with a minimal footprint in the guest
room. There are no unsightly power supplies or cables that could be damaged or disconnected — and all network and RF
management, operating power and client services are managed centrally.

telephone already on the wire
pair. The TS-524 provides up to
100Mbps backhaul data, along
with Adaptive Line Power; a
Zebra patented technology.
Each switch provides device
provisioning, status, statistics
and RF management of the
wireless Wallplate.

Superior coverage and performance in every
corner of every guest room
The T5 Wi-Fi over VDSL2 system puts the technology
where it will deliver the best possible service — in
your guest rooms. With traditional access point-based
wireless networks, wireless Internet access in guest
rooms is t ypically served by access points that are
installed on either end of the hallway, where distance
as well as construction materials — such as heating and
air-conditioning ducts — can impact wireless coverage
and performance in some of your guest rooms. The T5
Wi-Fi over VDSL2 system eliminates these issues with
its unique architecture that delivers in-room coverage
at its best. Coverage strength inside each guest room is
dependable, with no more “dead zones” or fluctuating
performance levels that drive guests into other parts of
the hotel in search of acceptable Internet connections.
Unsurpassed aordability
The T5 Wi-Fi over VDSL2 system is the most cost-ecient
way to deliver high-speed wireless Internet in your guest
rooms. There is no need to upgrade your copper wire to CAT5
wiring to provide today’s guest rooms with the fast 802.11n
speeds of tomorrow. Since the infrastructure in the rooms is
installed by simply replacing the phone plate, the upgrade in
the rooms can be completed in minutes with a screwdriver —
eliminating complex and costly installations of access points
in ceilings on guest room floors. With our unique line power
over VDSL2 technology, the TW-5xx Wallplates do not require
an in room power supply. Operating power is delivered by
the TS-524 Switch. The result? Your new T5 Wi-Fi over VDSL2
system can be up and running in days, instead of weeks or
months, and equipment is easily accessible for repairs.
Easy to manage
The T5 Wi-Fi over VDSL2 infrastructure integrates with
your property-wide Zebra Technologies WiNG 5-based
wireless LAN. Just like the traditional access points installed
in your lobby, restaurants and other central public areas
throughout your property, T5 system infrastructure can
also be adopted and centrally managed by your Zebra
Technologies NX 7500, NX 9600 or VX 9000 controllers.
For sites using only the T5 system, all T5 access points and
VDSL2 switches can be adopted, managed and queried from
a single login console. Detailed query tools provides deep
analysis of the network performance and client connectivity
to ensure maximum network availability and uptime.
The snap-on TW-511/TW-522 Wallplates are tamper proof —
there is nothing for guests or housekeeping to accidentally
unplug. And the highly scalable solution can meet the needs
of any size property — from a small single building property
to a large campus style resort with multiple buildings.
Services
Your guests will count on your T5 Wi-Fi over VDSL2 system
around the clock. That’s why our optional service oerings
include Advance Exchange for advance replacement of devices
that require repair; On Site System Support for fast next-day on
site service; and WLAN Software Support to keep your software
up to date, helping to minimize software-related issues.
