SF WiFi is a Northern California wireless solution provider specializing in Hospitality Wireless, SME, Point to Point, SMB and Hot Spot Wireless. Our clients range from large downtown San Francisco Hotels offering wireless services to guest rooms, restaurants, meeting rooms and corporate offices. We also have business clients that have the need to extend the network beyond the reach of Ethernet cables.

Wireless Internet access has become ubiquitous with mobile guests and business travelers expecting wireless access. SF WiFi provides wireless to over one million hotel guests annually.

Hospitality Wireless case study:

Hotel Specs: The property consists of 5 floors, 58 rooms, café bar and restaurant and 2 meeting rooms. Guests were complaining that the wireless coverage was limited, connections and performance was erratic. Adding additional Wi-Fi access points (APs) was not an option because there was no way to extend ethernet cabling throughout the property. The client needed an innovative solution that would satisfy customers without disrupting business or breaking their capital budget.

SF WiFi gets the call – Project Requirements:

Wireless coverage throughout the entire hotel

Minimize the number of access points

Minimize, mitigate RF interference

Install AP’s where Ethernet can’t reach
