MobileAccess reports $15m in New Hospitality Projects in 1H2008

MobileAccess, a global provider of enterprise wireless solutions, has reported over $15 million of new in-building wireless projects within the hospitality industry in the first half of 2008.

In this highly competitive industry, wireless is becoming a key differentiator, enabling hoteliers to provide leading-edge amenities to their guests while also boosting their own operational efficiencies. As a result, a record number of resorts, casinos and hotels are making the strategic decision to purchase and deploy the MobileAccess Universal Wireless Network to ensure support for a full range of current and future wireless applications.

In addition to its success with a broad array of hospitality customers including M Resort in Las Vegas, Bear Creek Mountain Resort & Conference Center in Pennsylvania, Grand Lakes in Orlando, and Peppermill Hotel Casino in Reno, MobileAccess continues to have strong growth across key verticals. For instance, in the healthcare market, more than 30 new facilities have recently committed to deploying the MobileAccess infrastructure - bringing the total to more than 300 hospitals. More importantly, all of these new Universal Wireless Network customers are rolling out multiple wireless services and applications including nearly twenty million square feet of Cisco WLAN coverage.

“The wireless infrastructure for any major facility, whether it is a mega resort on the Vegas strip or a cutting-edge teaching hospital, has become a strategic IT decision,” said Cathy Zatloukal, president and CEO of MobileAccess. “Our record growth in hospitality, continued momentum in healthcare and overall traction is driven by our ability to deliver an enterprise-grade, future-proof platform that supports all of the traditional cellular services as well as public safety, Wi-Fi and even WiMAX networks over a single infrastructure. It is not surprising to see a rapid increase in the scale, scope and volume of deals in a competitive and cutting-edge industry like hospitality.”

The MobileAccess Universal Wireless Network is ideal for the hospitality industry. The solution provides seamless and cost-effective coverage for the wireless applications and services expected by wireless-enabled guests. Leveraging proven interoperability with wireless LAN solutions, MobileAccess can help deliver a host of Wi-Fi powered applications, including VoWi-Fi, asset tracking, building automation and even gaming applications.

MobileAccess’ Wire-It-Once technology also provides support for two-way radios for security, first responders and building operations like housekeeping and maintenance along with pervasive coverage for the wireless voice and data networks of major carriers.
