Large libraries, hotels and travel centers with multiple public areas and services require a more flexible and well integrated public network, with specialized capabilities to serve the transient users.

In an Integrated HotSpot, wired and wireless computers share the same network with the specialized characteristics of a Public Access Network.

The Integrated HotSpot includes:

• A network gateway with specialized software for the development of public access networks. The basic version of the package includes a license for up to 100 clients. The client computers can be wired or wireless.
• Two wireless access points (AP) with support for 802.11b and 802.11g wireless clients.
• Two Power Injectors to provide electrical power to the access points over the data wires (Power-Over-Ethernet).
• Site survey to identify your needs and to optimize the configuration and coverage of the wireless cells.
• Installation of the gateway and the access points.
• Initialization and customization of the primary public access features of the gateway:
  • Automatic mapping of the user's network options to allow connection without reconfiguration through Dynamic Address Translation (DAT).
  • Automatic re-routing to your welcome page or Portal for services and announcements.
  • Bandwidth control.
  • Peer-to-peer blocking for privacy (VLANs needed for the wired clients).
  • iNtelligent Network Translation (iNAT) with IPSec to support multiple VPN connections to the same or different servers.
• Connectivity testing with your Internet access device: Cable, DLS or T-1 Router.
• Instruction session for your network administrator.
