Designed to extend a mobile broadband experience to hotel guest rooms by leveraging existing telephone wires, the TW-522 AP offers a cost-effective, easy snap-on installation that eliminates the need to run new cabling to each guest room – reducing installation complexity and minimizing disruption to guest stays.

 

Dual radio band operation allows hoteliers to install TW-522 APs in every room, offering guests a dedicated AP for connecting their laptops, tablets and smartphones. The TW-522’s built-in, enterprise-class security features ensure guests’ wireless connectivity is encrypted and secure.

 

“Hotel wireless networks deployed only a few years ago have become overwhelmed by the increasing number of new mobile devices and the large amounts of bandwidth they require,” said Mike Browning, president, Pacific DirectConnect Inc. “Zebra’s new TW-522 AP provides hotels with a cost-effective way to install dedicated APs in each room to deliver a superior wireless experience to their guests.”
