Montreal, Canada (5/3/2011) — Elfiq Networks, the manufacturer of the most innovative link balancer and bandwidth management solutions on the market today, has just published a new white paper discussing the boardroom topic of high speed Internet access (HSIA) management for the hospitality sector. “We surveyed 216 hotel sites for their bandwidth strategy to provide a reference point for the readers of this document,” said Jean Pascal Hebert, Vice President of Business Development at Elfiq Networks. “Now hoteliers have a way to compare their efforts with those of other organizations. Combined with the additional information contained in this white paper, decision makers can plan for immediate needs and the next few years and enhance the overall guest experience while keeping costs under control.” Elfiq Networks’ products enable organizations to use a diverse coexisting set of ISP carrier links, including low-cost and mobile carrier links, to ensure constant and reliable access to the Internet. With Internet access uptime and performance being a key requirement for guests, hoteliers need to proactively plan their HSIA projects and look towards the future. This white paper enables better decision making for such projects based on customer and industry metrics combined with recommended best practices. The Elfiq White Paper “An Executive’s Guide to Bandwidth: Information to Proactively Improve Bandwidth Management and Performance in the Hospitality Sector” is available now free of charge at www.elfiq.com/hospitalitywhitepaper.

Elfiq Networks’ link balancers enable organizations to utilize multiple concurrent ISP circuits to prevent Internet connectivity downtime and improve overall access performance. With more Internet-based applications and services being used in organizations every day, proper access to the Internet has become a critical asset for normal business operations, where loss of connectivity or ISP link saturation can result in lost revenue.
