Bandwidth management is especially essential for the hospitality industry, where the increased use of Wi-Fi enabled mobile devices often leads to extreme network congestion. In order to ensure uninterrupted internet connectivity at its hotels, Airangel, a U.K.-based   provider of high speed Internet access managed services, recently deployed Elfiq Networks’ bandwidth management solution at multiple customer sites.

With its link balancer solutions, Elfiq Networks has established ia strong presence in the bandwidth management and ISP link balancing spaces. Through a global network of reseller partners, the company delivers key solutions to organizations in over 120 countries worldwide.

Elfiq Link Balancers equip the property owners in the hospitality sector with an ISP failover and augmented throughput to deal with multiple ISP links. This guarantees enhanced Internet experience for tguests, which in turn leads to higher guest satisfaction scores and retention rates.

This bandwidth management solution also allows for the deployment of any ISP, including the aggregation of low-cost high-throughput xDSL or cable modem ISP services. The approach is expected to bring significant improvements in guest-facing Internet access services, while costing only a small fraction of a traditional leased line.

Airangel delivers innovative and superior Internet access management to the U.K.’s hospitality-centric organizations that provide Internet services to guests. The Link balancer from Elfiq help Airangel meet its hospitality-sector customers’ demands for a cost-effective solution as it gives users the intelligence needed to control, dedicate and shape aggregated bandwidth from multiple ISP’s concurrently, ensuring that Internet connectivity is maintained even if one or more ISP’s are currently unavailable.

“Elfiq is proud to partner with Airangel to deliver a superior and cost-effective guest Internet access management solution. This solution will deliver higher guest satisfaction scores, lower recurring and operational costs, while enhancing related services revenues to properties, in addition to delivering faster and reliable Internet access,”, Vice President of Business Development at Elfiq Networks Jean Pascal Hebert (News - Alert) explained in a statement.

Earlier this year, Bandwidth management solutions provider Elfiq forged an alliance with Data Systems Information Technology, a value-added distributor in Portugal, in order to develop and support value-added resellers in Portugal.
