Challenges
The Mayfair Lake Resort receives torrential rain nine months of the year, attracting humidity, an opponent of technology. The resort spans a large area of land, requiring a lot of copper cabling for communications services. Mayfair wanted to minimize this outdated technology and install an industrial grade server to withstand harsh weather. The new system also needed to cater to the use of Hybrid extensions where some legacy technology would be supported alongside the new IP telephony network. Mayfair also wanted to add mobility based on 3G/4G as deploying DECT and Vo-WLAN was not practical.
