Broadband Access in Hotel Rooms
• Business travelers are driving the demand for broadband
in hotels
– They are frustrated by slow dial-up Internet connections while
on the road
• A New class of service providers (SPs) are focusing on
rolling out broadband to hotels by establishing mini
points of presence (Mini-POPs) in the buildings
– Mini-POPs are smaller scale versions of the aggregation
devices that sit in the telecom provider's central office
– SPs are targeting large chains first so that they can win the
rights to wire hundreds of buildings per contract
