Hotel Solar Palmeiras: Wi-Fi from room to pool, no dead spots

For connectivity to be a natural part of the stay, in every corner of the building and outdoors. The requirements were clear: full coverage, high throughput, stability with many devices connected at once, and fast, protected browsing for guests and staff.

• Gigabit CAT6 cable One network outlet for each access point.
• Dedicated power Power outlets reserved for the wireless system.
• Cable trunking Tidy, accessible cable runs.
• Rack Connection and organisation in the client's new technical room.

The building presented structural obstacles during the work. The team studied alternatives and proposed solutions that delivered the best possible coverage across the whole property.

Inside the building

Thirteen access points installed and tuned to serve rooms, corridors and common areas, with optimised coverage and speed.

Outdoors

Dedicated antennas for the gardens, lounge areas and pool, where guests also expect to be connected.
