End-to-End Networking Solutions Reduce IT
Workload, Provide Backbone for Cutting-Edge Digital Guest
Amenities
Extreme Networks, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXTR) a leader in cloud-driven
networking solutions, today announced that some of the world’s most
famous resorts and casinos, including Jackpot Junction Casino
Hotel, Resorts World Las Vegas and Wynn Resorts, are leveraging
Extreme’s solutions to optimize casino and resort operations and
provide first-class guest experiences.
As digital entertainment options like online gambling and
eSports grow in popularity, a secure, high-performance network is
critical to support new offerings and ensure security. Extreme
provides the connectivity, control and insights casinos and resorts
require to offer next-generation services that drive guest loyalty
and significant new business opportunities. Extreme Fabric
solutions provide a simple, agile and inherently secure network,
offering customers increased stability, reliability and resiliency.
Further, Extreme makes it easy for casino IT teams to deploy and
manage the network through ExtremeCloud™ IQ, while ensuring
connectivity for everything from security cameras to slot machines
on the gaming floor.
Customer Highlights:
- High-Performance Fabric for Entire Community: Jackpot
Junction Casino Hotel has standardized its wired network on Extreme
Fabric Connect™, enabling the casino to move machines around on the
gaming floor without reprovisioning security settings or requiring
additional documentation. This ensures minimal disruption for
guests and casino operations. Additionally, Jackpot Junction, which
is built on the Mdewakanton Tribal Reservation, can now support the
surrounding Lower Sioux Native American community with wired
connectivity for its government buildings, local recreation center
and healthcare clinic.
- Secure Connectivity Powering the Largest A/V Network on the
Vegas Strip: Resorts World Las Vegas has a massive audio/visual
(A/V) system and needed a network that could support more than 900
video endpoints using 1,000 video streams, and 700 audio endpoints.
The new network from Extreme, deployed in partnership with
Technology West Group, supports full visibility into the A/V
network through ExtremeCloud IQ and enables the two-person network
team to quickly segment the network to support hundreds of events
each year. This reduces time spent setting up for events and
ensures event usage won’t impact anything else running on the
network.
Executive Insights:
Nick Potter, Director of IT, Jackpot Junction
“Previously, we were only operating at about 85 percent network
uptime. This had significant impact on our ability to provide our
guests with the services and amenities they required. With Extreme,
we’re now at 98 to 99 percent uptime, saving us time responding to
negative feedback from guests and staff and ultimately helping
drive more positive reviews and guest satisfaction. We also have a
more secure network, enabling us to offer better connectivity to
our community. We’re now looking at adding more amenities like
self-serve guest kiosks because our network can support them.”
Richard Reisig, Vice President at Technology West Group
“Resorts World hosts hundreds of events each year, and the A/V
system is the most elaborate and comprehensive on the Las Vegas
strip. Having a resilient network infrastructure that can securely
support thousands of IoT devices including games and cameras
without being a challenge to manage is critical to being able to
deliver the incredible experiences guests expect from an
ultramodern casino. Extreme’s solutions are battle tested in unique
environments, and they are the only company we’ve found that can
consistently handle and support Resorts World’s needs.”
Norman Rice, Chief Operating Officer, Extreme Networks
“Everything from resort entertainment to gaming floor security
relies on strong connectivity. A casino’s network must support
incredible performance and deliver full visibility and insights
that enable operations and management teams to continuously improve
and build upon guest experiences, all while reducing manual tasks
for staff through network automation. Extreme’s solutions enable
casinos to provide the personalized experiences that bring guests
back.”
