Understanding the environment

Dean hotels combine bedrooms, restaurants, bars, meeting spaces, terraces, gyms and restored architectural features. Guests expect high-quality WiFi throughout, while hotel operations depend on EPOS, card terminals, building management, CCTV, access control and door-key systems. The network therefore has to deliver strong coverage, capacity and separation without compromising the character or operation of each property.

A network built around operations

  • Surveyed and designed WiFi around guest, hospitality and operational spaces
  • At The Dean Galway, installed 66 access points and eight 48-port PoE switches
  • Terminated and tested more than 25 km of CAT6 cabling at the Galway property
  • Used a 10 Gb fibre backbone to avoid traditional switching bottlenecks
  • Combined multiple dedicated fibre services with an independent backup connection
  • Continuously monitored network equipment and handled faults and replacement

Clearer, more dependable connectivity

The Dean Hotels have a managed network foundation that supports both guest expectations and the systems required to run each property. The Dean Galway illustrates the scale of that approach: complete coverage across a 100-bedroom, 5,000-square-metre hotel, with resilient internet connectivity and proactive management designed to keep the hotel operating during an ISP disruption.
