Introduction
In small hospitality venues such as cafeterias, restaurants, or clinics, compact, feature-rich solutions are welcomed due to limited space and relatively simple networking infrastructure. The ZyXEL UAG2100 is a leading offering that fulfills the requirements of small hospitality venues, providing instant installation and simple maintenance.
The ZyXEL UAG2100 integrates all essential hotspot functions into a single device. It offers high-speed Wi-Fi, user authentication, data security, and a billing system. To comply with data retention regulations in some countries, the UAG2100 also logs Internet activities for future government auditing.
Application Scenario
The UAG2100 is designed for environments like cafes, restaurants, and clinics where providing reliable Wi-Fi is crucial for customer satisfaction. The system supports concurrent 2.4/5G Wi-Fi access, enabling multiple devices to connect simultaneously. It also facilitates SMS ticketing for user authentication and access management.
