Leading Hospitality Service Provider, Guest-Tek, Adds BelAir Networks to their Portfolio for Managed Wi-Fi Services

Anaheim, CA, HITEC 2009 – BelAir Networks, the market share leader in service provider WLAN, today announced that the company’s Wi-Fi networking products have been selected by Guest-Tek, the world's largest provider of high-speed Internet access (HSIA) for the business traveler. Guest-Tek delivers HSIA to more than half a million hotel rooms and is already using BelAir Networks in large-scale deployments.

“When we took over a number of Sheraton properties from Sprint, we got an opportunity to work with BelAir Networks products already in service and realized that they are a perfect fit for many of our hospitality networks,” said Orlando Phillips, Vice President, Operations, Guest-Tek. ”BelAir’s extensive indoor and outdoor portfolio, flexible wired and wireless networking options, and proven reliability complement Guest-Tek’s OneView Internet services in many different deployment scenarios.”

BelAir Networks offers the industry’s most comprehensive portfolio of indoor and outdoor Wi-Fi networking products, configurable as wired AP’s, mesh or point to point wireless nodes, or as wireless bridges between outdoor and indoor networks. Driven by the powerful, feature-rich BelAirOS operating system software and managed by BelView, BelAir Networks products employ hosted software-based control enabling Guest-Tek to centrally manage their networks and lowering CapEx by about 30% while delivering industry-leading performance. Integration with the service provider’s back office facilitates service provisioning, eases deployment and operation, and reduces network commissioning and upgrade costs.

BelAir Networks top ranked market share in 2008 and for the last 7 quarters is a result of the company’s successful deployments with major cable and telecom service providers, world-class hotels and resorts including Sheraton, Westin, W, and Hyatt, and high-profile locations like Lincoln Center in New York, the London Eye in the UK and Dolphin Stadium in Miami. The company’s technology has been recognized with several awards including both an InfoWorld 100 Award and a PC Magazine Award for the broadband wireless deployment at Dolphin Stadium supporting the world’s largest POS system.

BelAir Networks is in booth #223 and Guest-Tek is in booth #270 at HITEC 2009, Where Hospitality Meets Technology, at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, CA, from June 22-25, 2009.
