For the most part, the hotel experience is a simple one – it’s Bed, Shower and TV.
And while few hotels could get away with offering guests a narrow twin bed for their sleeping experience, many hotels, however, are still trying to get away with a narrow TV line-up of standard definition channels that is nothing like the extensive channels choices that guests have at home.
The most recent study by Neilsen showed that the average US home receives over 118 TV channels, with the Consumer Electronics Association adding that over 65% of US homes own at least one HD set.
So hotels that want to offer a competitive TV experience need to provide guests with more channels and HD offerings.
Fortunately, KoolConnect can help! We were the first company to implement HD in a hotel back in 2005. And today, our partnership with free-to-guest TV providers like DirecTV allows us to provide your hotel with great channel offerings in spectacular HD for a price lower than your local cable company!
KoolConnect can even deploy FTG-TV services over coaxial cable or Cat 5 – Ethernet (IP).
By deploying FTG-TV over IP (Cat 5/Ethernet), new hotels can save thousands by foregoing installation of coax, existing hotels can eliminate costly maintenance of legacy coax and all hotels can enjoy added benefits that are only available with IP delivery.
Contact KoolConnect today to learn how we can enhance your FTG-TV offerings and maybe even reduce your costs.
