The All-in-one Guest Access Solution of Tomorrow, Delivered Today High quality Internet service

High quality Internet service is no longer optional for hospitality
businesses. It is a guest expectation and a key to customer
satisfaction. Yet, providing satisfactory Internet access is not simply a
matter of installing Ethernet cables and wireless access points where
guests need them. Hospitality businesses need to address the issues of
access management, regulation compliance, and providing sufficient
bandwidth for an exploding amount of wireless mobile devices.
The
ZyXEL UAG2100 Unified Access Gateway is a next-generation, all-in-one
wireless hotspot/access gateway designed to fulfill the hospitality
challenges of both today and tomorrow. In addition to account
management, billing, and data retention capabilities, the UAG2100 offers
premium features—like 802.11 a/b/g/n dual-radio Wi-Fi and a built-in
WLAN controller—to deliver better scalability, capacity, and performance
to fulfill tomorrow’s guest access demands.
The ZyXEL Unified Access Gateway is designed with advanced billing,
user authentication, and access control features that help hospitality
businesses manage guest accounts, block unauthorized access, and
generate revenue with their Internet services. It gives hospitality
businesses the flexibility to offer Wi-Fi access as a free service, a
tiered service (premium when a purchase is made), or a paid service,
depending on the preferred business model.
- Guest account management: Featuring a built-in
account generator and a Web-based authentication portal, the UAG2100
helps hotspots provide controlled network access to guests with ease.
Simply by entering the provided account information in the captive
portal, guests can get secure wired or wireless access to the Internet
in a matter of seconds. Additionally, the UAG2100 supports external
RADIUS servers and external portal page redirection for added deployment
flexibility.
- Billing system: Hotspots can create up to 10
pre-paid billing plans with the UAG2100. Billing plans can be customized
with varying bandwidth speeds, service duration, and level of payment.
- SP350E Service Gateway Printer: The SP350E and
UAG2100 combination is the perfect solution for Wi-Fi hotspot
applications. The SP350E enables one-click billing and account
generation, which offers easy operation for staff members and smooth
services flows in hotel lobbies, conference rooms, waiting areas and
busy restaurants and cafés.
- SMS ticketing: The UAG2100 supports SMS ticketing
with ViaNett* to provide improved convenience for both the business
owner and the customer. With support for SMS ticketing, the UAG2100
allows business owners to send Internet account and billing information
directly to the customer’s mobile phone, without needing to spend loads
of money building an independent SMS ticketing system. This feature
offers a cheaper and more environment-friendly ticketing solution
compared to paper ticketing, and reduces the inconvenience related to
customers loosing or forgetting paper tickets.
