Motorola and Marriott International are teaming up to bring enhanced business and entertainment services to Marriott's hotel guests around the world, using Motorola's PowerBroadband system. Motorola's mT2a PowerBroadband product line was selected because its innovative design provides the performance levels required for next-generation, triple- and quad-play IP services. The mT2a PowerBroadband system features the m2 Wallplate, which directly snaps on over existing telephone wall plates found in hotel guestrooms, with no additional wiring nor rewiring required. All power and broadband modules are contained within the small Wallplate eliminating the requirement for separate broadband modems and power supplies. "We are excited about the success we saw with the deployment of Motorola's mT2a system into two of the largest Marriott branded hotels in the Washington, D.C. area and the 2000-room Orlando World Center," stated Lou Paladeau, Vice President Operations Technology at Marriott. "While the primary application supported today is high-speed Internet access, the new broadband infrastructure will enable additional guest services such as IP TV, movie and video downloads voice-over-IP, wireless access and dual-mode cell phones. We will be working closely with Motorola to define some of these new services to create a seamless and enhanced traveling experience for both the business traveler and the guest who is on vacation." "Motorola's mT2a system has proven its value across multiple deployments ranging from hotels and hospitals to residential apartments," said Greg Ioffe, General Manager, Private Broadband Networks, Motorola Home and Networks Mobility business. "We are especially glad to be working closely with Marriott which has been named the most preferred hotel by business travelers in a survey by Trip Advisor and one of the top ten most innovative users of technology in the U.S. by InformationWeek magazine. With Marriott's focus on guest satisfaction and Motorola's broad array of innovative data, video, and wireless solutions, we look forward to a wide range of new innovative guest services being deployed across all Marriott-branded hotels." |
