Overview:
Nomadix gateways have been the industry standard in hospitality for 25 years with tens of thousands of gateways supporting millions of rooms worldwide. Powered by patented technology, Nomadix’s family of internet access gateways is designed with reliability and scalability in mind to accommodate small, medium and large-sized venues — from hotels to airports to stadiums and convention centers.
Nomadix Gateways are powered by the Nomadix Service Engine (NSE) software that provides authentication, guest landing pages and bandwidth management. These solutions have earned a global reputation for unparalleled reliability and ease of management.
EG 6000
The EG 6000 is ideal for mid-to-large venues where support for thousands of simultaneous devices is desired. This high-performance gateway enables the creation of a high-speed visitor-based network (VBN). The gateway offers the flexibility to support from 1000 to 6000 devices and up to millions of devices by clustering gateways. With a throughput of up to 6 gigabits per second, it is ideal to support growing bandwidth demand while ensuring an optimal guest experience.
Features & Benefits
- Reliable internet access supported by two decades of development and testing
- Robust authentication and controls for configuration, management and VBN creation
- Bandwidth management, allocation and controls to ensure users get the right bandwidth levels with unused bandwidth redistributed to optimize the experience
- Scalable to accommodate small- to large-size networks (from boutique bed & breakfast properties to resorts to convention centers)
- IPv6 Certified by the IPv6 Forum starting with version 8.15
Features
Reliability
Nomadix has invested more than two decades of development and quality assurance to create a proven, reliable solution. Each release goes through vigorous testing to ensure the gateways can handle the load and specified functionality.
Nomadix gateways are built on an embedded operating system, which removes the reliance on open-source code that many other systems utilize and the corresponding security concerns.
The Nomadix NSE software runs on hardware designed to have a large mean time between failure (MTBF) for further reliability and stability. Nomadix also has a well-trained support staff to provide timely responses to any questions.
Custom-Branded Guest Landing Pages
The NSE software allows admins to create and maintain a dedicated captive portal that can be hotel-branded so that guests have a seamless experience. When used with the Nomadix Hotel Portal, MSPs and hotel admins have additional branding options and guest authentication flows.
Bandwidth Management and Control
Nomadix provides a variety of bandwidth management capabilities that enable properties to maximize their bandwidth investment. Internet circuits do not need to be upgraded as frequently even as usage demand continues to grow. Nomadix gateways support bandwidth management per device, per location by VLAN bandwidth limits or per group.
Additionally, bandwidth capping allows for the granular control of tiered access levels for different groups. Bandwidth prioritization, for VIP guests for example, allows different types of users or groups to access available bandwidth before others. Admins can also manage utilization of unused bandwidth to offer additional access beyond the capped limits when it is available.
Authentication
Nomadix gateways support multiple authentication methods, including integration with property management systems (PMS), credit card, RADIUS authentication, access codes, Facebook and Paypal. SMS, vouchers, China market support and brand-specific authentication flows for Hyatt and Marriott are supported authentication methods when paired with the Nomadix Hotel Portal.
How It Works
Nomadix gateways allow guests to access the internet without making changes to their network settings. "Set and forget" functionality requires configuration only once during setup without the need for future administration.
Once initial access is configured, other equipment, such as switches and access points, can also be managed. Interoperability with switches and networking standards allows for many different network topologies. A Nomadix gateway running the NSE software supports all networks that follow basic network specifications for packet forwarding and routing. The gateway is network-equipment agnostic as long as all switches, APs, GPON and other networking equipment follow standard networking specifications.
