Unified Access Gateway
All-in-One Access Hotspot Combines Gateway, Printer and Others for Smaller Businesses

Product Overview

It’s quite troublesome to deploy networks in smaller public areas such as coffee shops, bistros or bars. Providing Internet access is always a necessary but tiring job to meet customer expectations, however venue owners must complete complex Internet framework setup tasks to manage access and prevent bandwidth abuse.

The ZyXEL UAG50 Unified Access Gateway is a brand-new all-in-one access hotspot that combines a wireless access gateway and a built-in thermal ticket printer. The device is designed to fulfill the needs of small venue owners with limited resources to provide the best services and quality with less setting and management effort.

New All-in-One hotspot with the best TCO

The ZyXEL UAG50 is a brand-new All-in-One wireless hotspot/access gateway that integrates AP, router, AAA gateway and thermal printer functions, and it generates user accounts and passwords for Internet access with just a press on the button to relieve receptionists from complicated operations. With the ZyXEL UAG50, multi-device deployment, integration and maintenance routines are no longer headaches for venue owners.

Generating revenue

The ZyXEL Unified Access Gateway is designed with advanced billing, user authentication and access control features that help venue owners service guest accounts, block unauthorized access and generate revenue with their Internet services. It gives owners the flexibility to offer Wi-Fi access as a free service, a tiered service (premium when a purchase is made) or a paid service, depending on the preferred decision for the venue.

Increasing customer loyalty

In smaller public areas such as coffee shops, bistros or bars, almost every customer has wireless-capable mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets and even laptops on hand. To satisfy this fast-growing demand, venue owners need a solution that provides ideal Wi-Fi bandwidth, capacity and performance. The ZyXEL UAG50 supports up to 50 users and gives equal bandwidth to each user for them to enjoy high-quality Wi-Fi Internet access, which leads to higher customer loyalty.

Meeting the challenges of future auditing

To address information security concerns, venue owners are sometimes required to retain Internet usage records for a certain amount time; and this can become a significant burden for the businesses without the right equipment. The ZyXEL UAG50 helps resolving the challenges: its built-in syslog server automatically record user account information, MAC addresses, source and destination IPs for future auditing requirements.
