Five IT Considerations for the Media-Centric Hotel Room
The TV is the design and media center of the hotel room. It’s the first thing your guests see and has the greatest impact on the overall impression of an establishment. Hoteliers must meet or exceed the technology that their guests already have in their living rooms.

Built-in screen sharing technologies allow users to bring their own media and eliminate the need for hotels to supply in-room speakers and docks for mobile devices.
Keeping up with consumer expectations for a Smart TV experience is critical to guest satisfaction.
Implementing the latest display technologies helps reduce energy consumption, providing cost savings that can add up.
Unleashing the best content available requires the properdigital rights management (DRM) and infrastructure.
