### In this article

**DataRoad - IT Services and Consulting delivered LX Arch Hotel on Rua Augusta its entire IT infrastructure ready for opening: structured network, isolated guest Wi-Fi 7, enterprise firewall and CCTV, and has managed it on an ongoing basis ever since.** In a hotel, the Wi-Fi is judged before breakfast, and a weak signal in a room reaches the booking platforms the same day. LX Arch Hotel, a short walk from Rossio, chose not to take that risk.

## The challenge: the reputation of the first months

In Lisbon's Baixa, a new hotel competes with dozens of others from its first night. Early reviews weigh for months, and a complaint about Wi-Fi is one of the easiest to avoid and one of the most expensive to fix.

A stable network, next-generation Wi-Fi, solid security and video surveillance had to work for the very first guest, and someone had to make sure they kept working afterwards.

## The solution: complete infrastructure, ready before the first guest

| Component | What it does in the hotel |
| --- | --- |
| Structured network | Cabling and network infrastructure throughout the building |
| Wi-Fi 7 Guest | Latest-generation guest network, separate and protected |
| Enterprise firewall | Secure perimeter and network control |
| CCTV | Video surveillance covering the hotel |
| Ongoing management | Continuous consultancy, maintenance and technical follow-up |

As in every hotel, we started with our own coverage survey, room by room and common area by common area, so no spot is left without signal. The guest network was kept separate from the operations network, so PMS, POS and video surveillance stay available at all times.

## The result: a hotel that opened with its technology working

- **Ready for opening:** Complete IT infrastructure working from the first guest.
- **Guest Wi-Fi 7:** Fast and on a network isolated from operations.
- **Two layers of security:** A firewall on the network and CCTV in the building.
- **One accountable partner:** DataRoad maintains and monitors the infrastructure every day.

## Frequently asked questions

Yes, on the Premium 365 plan, the only one with 24/7 support, covering nights, weekends and public holidays. The other IT Unlimited plans cover business hours.
