Wellington International Airport required the following Key Operational Features for their new airport / hotel development.
Capacity:
GPON delivers 2.5 Gbps downstream and 1.2 Gbps upstream on each fibre so you can converge separate networks, eliminate bottlenecks, and deliver gigabit speeds to every user.
Cost:
Optical LAN is both cheaper to install and cheaper to run than a traditional LAN.
Security:
GPON provides military-grade security and carrier-grade reliability.
Longevity:
Fibre is future-proof, robust and scalable, providing value for 50+ years.
Flexibility:
Deploy anywhere as fibre supports a smaller bend radius than copper cabling and is resistant to signal and noise interference.
Simplicity:
GPON is a mature technology, designed for simplicity and efficiency, easy to understand and manage.
Wellington International Airport Limited choose the Nokia GPON / Passive Optical LAN solution for the new Wellington Airport Hotel to improve customer experience, simplify operations, and reduce ICT costs.
“A new-build, state-of-the-art hotel development provides the perfect opportunity to move from traditional copper Ethernet LAN to a future-proof, high-performance GPON / Passive Optical LAN (POL) to gain real business benefits for the hotel.”
Leanne Gibson, General Manager Facilities, Transport & Technology Wellington International Airport
“While evaluating the POL model to structure the hotel’s telecom network, Wellington International Airport determined that the Nokia GPON / Passive OL solution, offered by New Zealand ICT solutions provider Lexel Systems, was a perfect fit, offering the hotel a lower cost of operations, flexibility of network architecture, speed to deploy new services and solution stability.”
Noel Simpson, CEO, Lexel Systems.
