Industry Background

With the development of modern network technology, hotels have increasing needs for network upgrades. Internal employees need to access the intranet anytime, anywhere, for order processing, managing customer information, and many other things; customers need to access the Internet anytime, anywhere, to keep in touch with family and friends, or to handle work matters as well as to enjoy recreational activities.
