NetEqualizer Accelerates Internet Access for the Hotel Industry


LAFAYETTE, Colo., Jan. 8, 2007 - APConnections, Inc., has moved into the hotel industry in a big way and is being used in prominent hotels to insure vital communications for their guests.

APConnections has announced a major deployment at the Holiday Inn, Washington-Central/White House in Washington, DC. Visiting dignitaries will be relying on the NetEqualizer to insure responsive Internet connections.

"We try to stay ahead of the curve here in Washington, DC; our customers are very tech savvy and require the best service when it comes to their Internet connectivity. Since installing the NetEqualizer back in November it has been smooth sailing - no busy hour slowdowns or complaints," said Jeff Billings, System Administrator, Holiday Inn Central, www.inndc.com.

The NetEqualizer is increasingly used in hotels because the guests demand quality Internet services and the load from many hotel guests can be daunting to most systems. According to analysts broadband Internet access in guest rooms is expected to more than triple between 2004 and 2009 to nearly 54,000 properties worldwide. Currently, hotels are being judged and ranked according to their quality of Internet access.

With nearly 1,500 Holiday Inn hotels around the world, Holiday Inn remains the most popular hotel brand. They offer free high-speed Internet access at each of their facilities in the U.S. & Canada.

The NetEqualizer is a plug-and-play bandwidth control appliance that is flexible and scalable. NetEqualizer's unique technology differs significantly from other appliances. It uses "behavior shaping" which dynamically and automatically controls network flow for the best WAN Optimization. It is built on Linux and works with all operating systems. It has been on the market in its present form for a year and a half.

APConnections is a privately held company founded in 2003 and is based in Lafayette, Colorado (http://www.netequalizer.com). They have been serving the hotel community for many years.
